This is a Lea Stein double headed snake bangle in a striking black and white.  These are getting harder to find - especially in good colours.  The only problem is that the opening is quite narrow - approx 2 3/10ths inches.  It is in good condition and is marked on the inside - Lea Stein Paris.  Ref: 2883 C29/20
