Bracelet

Description

An exquisitely decorated bracelet made of flat gold plate, consisting of two strips, each 1.5 cm wide, with a 0.2 cm wide border at the top, centered, and bottom. All three borders are equally decorated with fine wire in the center and filigree thread on the sides. The inner surface of the plate is decorated with granulation in two rows. In the center of the granulation is a socket, the sides of which are decorated with filigree thread. The bead opposite the socket has fallen out. Two pairs of teardrop-shaped sockets for inlay remain at both ends of the bracelet. The sockets are decorated with filigree thread. The fastening is designed with three loops at one end and two at the other, which, when closed, form a through hole into which the clasp is attached. The clasp is a bent wire with a rounded tip, decorated with fine granulation. One of the loops has a bridge in the center that holds the clasp in place, and it remains in place. At a distance of 2.6 cm from one end, the bracelet is broken into two pieces, and two holes are drilled through each side, presumably indicating repairs by the craftsman. The inside of the bracelet is smooth and well-finished.
