This antique sterling silver bangle was made in the late Victorian era of the 1890's, and not only makes such a wonderful statement on the wrist thanks in part to its width and beautiful hand engraving, but also as it is highlighted with rose gold.
Measuring 41.5mm wide including the balls on each side, this makes such a lovely statement on the wrist and is perfect to wear during the day or night.
With the most beautiful floral design that was all hand engraved, this is highlighted perfectly with rose gold for the flowers as well as the elegant border around it.
Being hinged allows these bangles to sits nice and close to the wrist, and the quality of this bangle as well as its design, is a real testament to the jewellery that was made well over 100 years ago, yet is still as beautiful today as when it was made.

Antique hand engraved sterling silver bangle highlighted with rose gold
Gold is alloyed with other metals that results in producing different colours. Rose gold is made by primarily adding copper to the gold when being alloyed resulting in the lovely warm tone to it, and today green gold is made by adding silver to the gold, however the green colour is more a soft green-yellow colour. Years ago cadmium was added resulting in a stronger colour. While never a strong green such as yellow or white gold, the tone of green in antique pieces is more pronounced especially when set against sterling silver.
