I’ve put all three of my bracelets together and as you can see the designs are similar. The Shipton & Co and Thomas Mott bracelets are exactly the same with the flowers and leave work in the small panels. The green Agate bracelet panels have obviously no stones and the leave which are different to the other two bracelets, and the flowers are larger to compensate for having no stones, but all in all the designs are to my eye designed by the same person.
As I said in one of my other postings Bernard Instone retired in 1963 I personally think he went on to design for other companies.
I know that Sybil Dunlop finished working in 1939 but her company reopened in 1945 without her and it is well known that Bernard Instone designed and made jewellery for this company.
Many thanks for looking
Beautiful flower panels!
Many thanks Tigra, I appreciate your comment.
It's great to see them all together and compare. Some interesting results from that!
Interesting, and beautiful, Jean!
3 absolutely stunning bracelets Jean!! :-)
Jean, great post and absolutely beautiful bracelets! So interesting to see them together!!!
Thank you Karen for your comment. If only there was someone out there that could identify these 3 bracelets has designed by Bernard Instone, maybe I should delve more deeply, the problem is I don't know we're to start.
Thanks Judy, I really appreciate your comment.
Hi kyra, they are interesting when they are together. Definitely the Shipton & Co and Thomas Mott are identical except for the different coloured stones. The green stoned bracelet as I have said in the write up has different silver single larger leave and the 2 larger flowers. I think this bracelet could be a Bernard Instone, maybe I can attribute to him, what do people on CW think.
Many thanks
