This gorgeous bracelet is marked 1/20-10K Gold Filled and was made by Engel Brothers in the 1930s. It is an Art Deco piece with golden rectangular links and round red crystals. Art Deco jewelry often featured circles, squares, rectangles, and arcs, influenced by the Cubist painters at the time. Many designes also showcased Asian, Egyptian, and African themes. Art Deco jewelry included bold rings, long necklaces, and the wearing of multiple bracelets (think "Flapper") and reflected the flamboyant attitude of Hollywood and the Jazz Era.
Feel free to contact me if you are interested in purchasing this piece. Questions, comments, and additional information are always appreciated. My online shop on www.rubylane.com is coming soon.

This is more sensitive for me to choose the diamond bangles
ReplyDeletetoo many eyes used to be there to comment on your choice so I visited many shopping stores to get something outstanding but it was harder for me to make any choice but I found a huge range of accessories in this site and felt myself fail to make choice among thousands of choices.
