Pretty egyptian revival, guilloche / enamel art deco bracelet I bought online from Czech republic. Unsigned.
The safety chain is not original , I would say someone tried to repair the piece - gonna find a better chain for that purpose. The circles appear to be plastic. Not tested yet but I would say celluloid.
The guilloche / enamel parts are what I love, tiny and nicely made, lot of details, vivid colors. Hand-painted I would say. Instant love!
When searching online I found similar bracelets with this type od enamel links, but they were from silver. Mine is from brass - I like it!
Is there a Neiger possibility? I would like to hear your opinions!
Beautiful Egyptian designs, lovely
Thank you for your love Newfld!
The enamel is so pretty!
That you Tigra for your love!
Really nice bracelet-love the enamel work
valentino97 - thank you! I think celluloid.
Mrstyndall - thank you for your love!
I have never seen this egyptian necklace before !~
PhilDMorris, thank you!
I have a necklace similar to this as in it is the same chain design and it is a brass chain also, it seems to me that the rings on mine are a slight tint of green and i was thinking that they were made of antler or perhaps bone, they look as tho they have been turned on something, like a lathe perhaps? Also mine doesn't have the enamel squares and it is missing whatever is supposed t hang from it but still, with it being made f brass, its just magnificent. I'm going to add mine to my collection right now so you can see it. Thanks for sharing i have been looking for ever for another one like mine with that brass chain, oh and also i did notice when viewed only threw my jewelers loop that on the closing ring of mine it says germany but i could only see it with the loop
I love pieces like this that epitomize a specific period in jewelry history, in terms of materials used, designs and popular themes of the era. Great find.
I would like to ask an (unrelated) question here, if I may. I know the CW rules state that no pieces are to be shared that are also currently on sale, because we want this to be about sharing not selling or buying. I like that! However, what if I have a piece I want to learn about or share, and some time later I decide to sell it online. Is that "fair", and if so, what is a proper waiting time before we list it elsewhere? I apologize if this is spelled out elsewhere... I am still getting oriented to the site.
Andrew i would love to be able to answer your questi0n, 0r help y0u in s0me way but i am new here als0 and i have n0 idea, s0rry.
Y0urs M0st SINcerely,
Nikki
bustylerue and Andreamw, thank you!
bustylerue, sorry for my late response on this - yes the links on your piece appear to be similar!
I saw similar chain bracelets with enamel, but they were made from silver, unlike mine, which is from brass
Andreamw I dont think there is a rule if you want to sell outside CW
