Precious Vintage Bracelet With Sapphires & Diamonds in White Gold, 1960s

Dark blue sapphires and brightly shining diamonds define the precious bracelet here. The sparkling gemstones are set in gleaming white gold and arranged in a rhythmic chord. Always three sapphires are set next to each other, next to them sparkle diamonds and small leaves formed of white gold. The bracelet shines like the stars in a warm summer sky - in fact, it just begs to be worn to a ball or reception in the evening, when the light from its diamonds can do its best work. The bracelet's elegant, cool aesthetic is typical of 1960s jewellery. White gold and diamonds defined the fashion of the decade, combined with usually only one coloured stone and arranged in rhythmic repeats. David Bennet and Daniela Mascetti: Understanding Jewellery, Woodbridge 2010, have illustrated several comparable bracelets on page 434f. Because of the concealed clasp, the bracelet forms an endless pattern when worn. This is convenient because it prevents the bracelet from twisting: It is equally beautiful to look at from all sides. Due to the many joints, it is also pleasantly soft on the arm. An independent certificate has confirmed the quality of the materials. It is enclosed with the bracelet, which we were able to discover in Hamburg.
