Vintage Arts & Crafts Hand Wrought Nails Cross Pendant Handmade Repurpose

From the estate of an old Goldette jewelry distributor from many years ago this is an original, Unused, signed Goldette double chain slide style bracelet with a 6mm chain link centerpiece in like new condition. Old store stock only ever used for display. It is small and delicate yet very strong and well made. Goldette was well known for making Victorian Revival jewelry and for using very heavy gold plating and silver that lasts for many decades. Although this one has Victorian style slides the centerpiece does not move from one end of the bracelet to the other like a Victorian slide bracelet. Rather, the chain moves through each side of the centerpiece. Size is 7 1/8" end to end laid out flat on a table. Should fit a small to medium wrist size. Width across the centerpiece is just about 1/4". The chains are 1/16". Ready to wear this is a lovely, fine condition example of 1970s Goldette bracelet for your vintage jewelry collection. It is petite and delicate looking yet very strong and durable. Also good for layering    

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.
