Stunning c1900 Chinese Green Jade Vermeil Gilt Silver Filigree Bracelet

Presented is a stunning antique Chinese vermeil (gilt silver) and jade bracelet, dating to the late 1800s or early 1900s. The bracelet consists of five very ornate filigree links, each bezel set with a round cabochon of beautiful light green jade. The jade is a very appealing color, with natural mottling and variations but overall very well matched. The filigree is exceptionally intricate and finely done by hand, some of the highest quality you’ll find. The bracelet closes with a tab insert style clasp that is nearly invisible when the bracelet is on the wrist, and has a fine safety chain on the side for additional security. This bracelet is in excellent condition. The gold wash is in great shape and all the stones are intact and well set. The filigree is nice and crisp. The clasp and safety are both functioning well and close securely. The bracelet is stamped silver on the tab of the clasp, nitric acid tested and guaranteed at least 900 purity. The bracelet is about 7 1/2 inches long, not including the tab of the clasp, which does not contribute to the overall length when worn. The width is about 7/8 of an inch at the widest. The bracelet weighs 42.7 grams or 1.5 regular ounces. Powered by SixBit’s eCommerce Solution.
