Long Silver Chain Link Shoulder Duster Earrings Tassels No Hooks

Antique late Victorian to early Art Deco original Carmen sweetheart expansion bracelet signed D.F. Briggs who was the original maker of the expansion bracelet from Attelboro, MA. These gold filled Carmen expansion bracelets were made between 1892 and 1922. This bracelet has very, very little wear on the "S" links. The gold is still 99% intact so what you are seeing in the photos is a lot of light reflection on the center of each "S" link. Actual bracelet has very little gold wear. It came from an estate many years ago and has lost some of its tightness. It will fit a size 7″ or ANY LARGER size that you need. It has a lot of stretch in it and will gpo to a double triple extra large if needed. This was used by a larger woman so it is stretched out will only spring back to a size medium; won't spring back for a size small. Width is 1/2″ wide across. It is beautifully detailed with a fancy repoussed top that goes all the way around. This is a lovely Victorian to early Art Deco statement bracelet for your vintage and antique gold jewelry collection. Carmen made beautiful bracelets that always look like solid gold once they are polished out. From Google AI About The Maker: D.F. Briggs Co. (Attleboro, MA) patented their signature "Carmen" expansion bracelets as early as 1901, with production of these gold-filled "sweetheart" bracelets largely occurring between the 1890s and 1922. The company, which was founded in 1892 (or 1882, according to some sources), stopped using the "D.F.B. Co." mark in 1922 when it became Briggs, Bates, and Bacon.
