Size: 7" length, 5.5mm - 9mm beads
Marked 'STERLING' and an 'S' initial on the clasp. Good condition, lots of aging on the filigree clasp, the silver has taken on a deep patina. I have not rebeaded this. The faux pearls have some scratches and scuffs on the surface but overall still very nice. They are a beige colour with a yellow tint, lightweight and looks to be made of plastic. 1930s-40s.

VINTAGE 1940s VERMEIL STERLING RHINESTONE BUCKLE BRACELET
Price: S$150.00 (US$125.00) 
Size: 7.25" max length, 21x17mm detail, 13mm width
Unmarked sterling silver, fine-good condition, lots of aging and wear. The gold-plating has worn down to reveal its silver base and that in turn has shown patina. I have not polished it. The rhinestones have aged and turned dull. The clasp appears to be gold-filled or a different gold standard as it is more golden than the rest of the bracelet which has a rose-gold tint. This bracelet is still wearable and sturdy, with a sleek mesh brick-style chain. There is a little loop near the end and I'm not sure what it is for, maybe it used to dangle a tag of sorts. The rhinestone buckle is in a fixed position to give it a faux buckle motif reminiscent of buckle bracelets of the Victorian era, it is studded with clear rhinestones and green square rhinestones. This will make an opulent statement for your wrists.

Marked (partially) 'Hecho en Mexico' with a motif in the center. Not sterling silver but has the colour of it. It is embedded with what looks like obsidian that has a silver chatoyancy sheen at different light angles. Very good condition, with good craftsmanship; although some wear and aging on the surface, the silvertone has turned a slight yellowish tint. Probably 1950s-1970s.

VINTAGE EMMONS FLORAL BRACELET
Price: S$45.00



Size: 7", 21mm width
Signed '©Emmons' twice (once on clasp once on bracelet). Very good condition, minor wear and aging. There are minor chips on the plating on one of the links, it is on the inside. Pale goldtone settings, the florals are 3-D (probably Japanese) and made of old plastic. Lovely bracelet to collect; the colour is a salmon-coral, my photos' colours aren't too accurate. 1950s-60s.
