MODERNIST SILVER METAL BRACELET


This is a modernist silver metal bracelet marked 850 - so it is of foreign manufacture and is below Sterling. I think it is from the 1950/1960's and I love the design. Price £88. Ref: 431 A187/8. www.gillianhorsup.com (There is usually more detail on my own website!).

  1. I just inherited a bracelet like this from my mother, though it has a gold wash on it (mostly worn off). I was searching for vintage silver bracelets marked 850, since I was curious if I could find out anything about the age/style/origin. How amazing to come across your post! I don't remember ever seeing her wear it, but I love the style.

  2. Cheryl - sorry I did not notice your comment earlier. This bracelet is not silver but is very typical of the mid century modernist style which I too love! I do get similar in a gold place too. I am sure you will treasure your moth's bracelet.
