Selro Tangerine & Gold Bracelet

NWS 4-933

~ Don't you just love these fabulous bracelets from the 1940's? They're so gorgeous! For the bold, life-loving woman who enjoys being different and isn't afraid to be noticed, this Selro bracelet is for you!

~ And don't you love these wonderful, deep colors of coral and tangerine, all set in bronze-tone metal and surrounded by glass pearls for contrast. I have never seen cabochons glow like these large, orange glass stones. They throw the light from deep inside them, the way moonstones do. Amazing.

~ All stones have been prong-set by hand, the sort of intensive labor we don't see in today's costume jewelry.

~ Here we see Ann Sheridan on the cover of Picturegoer Magazine in May of 1941. In those days, the style was to wear more than one bracelet at a time. In this photo, Ann is wearing three.

~ Measures a generous 8" long and 1.5" wide.

~ This is a "movie still" from one of Carole Landis' movies in the early 40's. Note that she is wearing a similar bracelet. These colors of coral, tangerine, pearl and gold go well with so many things in a woman's wardrobe, including grey flannel, black, chocolate brown, yellow.... The possibilities are endless!

~ Adding a little extra sparkle, two juicy, aurora borealis chatons connect each of the four links, and throw off colors of apple green, aqua, pink, purple and fire orange, blue and gold.

~ Bracelet has a decorative folding clasp. Its safety chain however is missing, but would be easy to put one on. By the way, safety chains only came on high quality jewelry, so that tells it all about this bracelet.

c. 1940, in super condition, with normal, minor wear for its vintage age, all stones are original, and the glass pearls have very little scuffing. In fact, they are near perfect. An extraordinary bracelet with total pizzazz.

Price = $73.00 b 1, q-z 2
