A beautiful, handmade vintage dragon bracelet (Dragon Cuff), offered as a complete collector's set including the corresponding heavy carved stone presentation box. This piece is a fine example of traditional ethnic and tribal art from the Himalayan region (Tibet/Nepal).

The set includes the matching, heavy stone presentation box, making it a perfect display or gift set.
