1940s Portuguese Retro Bracelet 19k Rose Gold 7.5" Fine Jewelry Square Link

Overview:

Stylish vintage retro square link bracelet crafted in 19 karat Portuguese rose gold (circa 1940s). 

A great example of 1940s Retro jewelry with a bold, structured design typical of the era. The square curb link design features high polished faceted links that shimmer with your every movement. The bracelet melds to your wrist, is both supple and hefty to the touch at 38.5 grams. Great worn alone as a statement piece or as a part of a bracelet stack. 

The bracelet is in very good condition and was lightly cleaned and polished. 
The piece was acquired on a recent trip to Portugal, one of Europe's most exciting destinations for discovering exceptional antique and vintage jewelry. Portugal's thriving antiques community, historic markets, and renowned art and antiques fairs provided access to remarkable jewelry with provenance, exceptional beauty and character. Each piece was carefully selected for craftsmanship, originality and history. I am delighted to share these newly acquired pieces. Please shop our site to view the entire collection.
