AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Splendid Victorian silver “book chain” or cuff bracelet with broad, linked rows and a large, finely engraved square box clasp.

Such broad silver bracelets were extremely popular in the late Victorian period (1870–1900) and were often decorated with geometric and floral repoussé or engraving patterns, such as the leaf-and-flower motif on the central clasp of this piece.

Weight is 45.92 grams.

Length is 18.0 cm.
Width is 3.5 cm.

Equipped with the silver hallmark “old sword” that was used from 1814 to 1906 and a maker’s mark.

Perfectly functioning box clasp, safety chain and safety hook.

After decades of careful collecting I have decided to part with (a part of) my collection. I want these remarkable objects to find a place with a new enthusiast who understands the value of historic preservation. It is time that these pieces receive the attention they deserve, so they are preserved for the distant future as well.

I ensure extremely careful packaging and insured shipping.
