1903 Chunky Curb Bracelet with Detachable Heart Padlock (7.5")
How yummy are the proportions on this babe? I adore her. So beautifully made, and in such wonderful condition for a 122-year-old lady! Despite her hollow construction, I can't spot a single dent, and a little polish brought up the most perfect rose 9ct antique gold. She is closed with a sturdy heart padlock and has a detachable safety chain, so she is really easy to take on and off.
Her proportions are massive, with chunky 9.2mm wide links (ungraduated) - but thanks to that hollow construction she is still lightweight making her comfortable and affordable.
I love the jump links, how they sit perpendicular to the curb, and how doughnutty they are. Plus each is tagged with a tiny little 9ct tag which is so precious.
