Βραχιόλι - 18 καράτια Κίτρινο χρυσό - Κλάες Ε Αντρέν 1916
This exquisite 18k yellow gold bracelet, crafted by Claes E. Andrén in Göteborg (Gothenburg), Sweden, circa 1916, exemplifies the elegant craftsmanship of early 20th-century Scandinavian jewelry. Measuring approximately 18 cm in length and weighing 11.8 grams, it is designed as a flexible link bracelet suitable for a slender wrist, with a total of about 20 articulated rectangular links that allow for comfortable wear and subtle movement.
The bracelet features a series of box-shaped links, each adorned with intricate double-spiral or scroll motifs deeply engraved and accented with dark niello inlay for striking contrast against the warm gold tone. These swirling designs, reminiscent of organic forms like vines or waves, reflect the lingering influence of the Art Nouveau style, which emphasized fluid lines and natural inspiration, though by 1916 it was transitioning toward the more geometric Art Deco era.
The edges of each link are bordered with fine geometric patterns, adding texture and depth, while the overall construction demonstrates high-quality hand-finishing typical of Swedish artisans of the period.
The piece fastens with a secure box clasp, engraved on the interior with the maker's mark "CA" (for Claes E. Andrén), the town mark "GBG" (abbreviation for Göteborg), and the fineness mark "18K" confirming 75% pure gold content.
Claes E. Andrén (active 1913–1931) was a respected jeweler and silversmith in Göteborg, known for his work in precious metals, often blending traditional Nordic motifs with contemporary European styles. His firm, which later evolved into Andren Juvelerare Aktiebolaget, produced items like coffee services and candlesticks, but this bracelet highlights his skill in personal adornments. Pieces from this era are valued for their durability and subtle elegance, with the niello work adding a layer of artistry that has aged gracefully, showing minimal wear beyond light patina.
