ART Renaissance Revival Bracelet

I love this bracelet!  It is silvertone with black and milky green glass stones.  The green stones have a spartan image etched on them which are unfortunately hard to see in the picture above. 


The underside of each  black stone segment of the bracelet is stamped with the ART trademark.  ART was owned by Arthur Pepper and was in business from approximately the late 1940s through 1980.  ART jewelry is of high quality, usually combining filigree or stampled metalwork with unique stones, brightly colored enamels, and interesting color combinations.  Many people see similarities between ART jewelry and pieces made by Florenza and Hollycraft. 


Feel free to contact me if you are interested in purchasing this piece.  Questions, comments, and additional information are always appreciated.  My online shop is coming soon.
