Silver and gold bangle made in 1882

What a magnificent bangle!

This antique bangle was made in sterling silver in 1882 and measures 3.7cm wide making the width alone sure to be admired, however it is not just the exquisite design on the front that will catch the eye, it is the remarkable use of the design being highlighted with both rose and the much rarer green gold.

With a wonderful floral design on the front that is complimented by hand engraving, the flower have been emphasised in both rose and green gold.

For centuries gold has been made in different colours by being alloyed with other metals. Rose gold is produced by primarily adding copper to the gold for example, and years ago green gold was made by adding silver to the gold or cadmium. This results in a lovely soft green colour that looks so beautiful especially when set against the sterling silver. With the rose used for the flowers, and the green for the leaves, this bangle is destined to always be admired each time that it is worn.

Being oval in shape as well as hinged, this allows it to sit so comfortably on the wrist where it look perfect day or night.
