Summary

Description

A vintage sterling silver cuff bangle set with numerous natural purple amethysts.

The front is arranged in three parallel channels of closely fitted rectangular cut amethysts, separated by narrow silver bands with beaded edges. At the centre, three larger elongated hexagonal cut amethysts interrupt the rows, each held within a shaped silver setting.

The stones have a consistent purple colour, with variations in tone and light reflection across their facets. The channel settings follow the curve of the bangle, creating a continuous decorative effect.

The broad front section tapers towards the ends, which are pierced with an organic design. The reverse of the setting has an openwork construction, allowing light to enter behind the stones.

One arm is hinged close to the decorated section, allowing the bangle to open for fitting over the wrist. The opposite arm is fixed. The hinge has an integrated retaining mechanism, and the silver is stamped 925 adjacent to the fitting.

The bangle is designed to fit wrists up to approximately 18 cm and is not adjustable.

Due to the number of closely fitted gemstones and the intricate channel settings, this piece is recommended for occasional or special occasion wear rather than daily use.

Amethyst is the birthstone for February.

Condition

Good vintage condition with very light surface wear consistent with age and careful use.
