All auctions / Jewellery & Gems / Vintage Curb Chain Bracelet Made of Gold & Emeralds, Pforzheim c. 1985


Shiny, polished gold surfaces, vividly coloured gemstones, and bold designs characterise the jewellery of the 1980s. The era embraced powerful designs, grand gestures, and took pleasure in displaying luxury. Broad chains, often in a curb link pattern, were typical and worn as necklaces or bracelets. This exquisite bracelet, crafted from high-quality materials, originates from a distinguished Hanseatic estate and is a quintessential piece of its time. Five precious emeralds in a vibrant green hue are set in high-carat yellow gold. Each of the solid, curved chain links is flexibly connected to the next, ensuring that the bracelet is both comfortable to wear and, with a weight of over 42 grams, provides a luxurious feel on the wrist. The gemstones are securely set in their yellow gold bezels, and each stone exhibits unique inclusions, which allow natural minerals to be easily distinguished from synthetic gemstones. According to its hallmark, this piece of jewellery was crafted in the workshop of Adolf Kümmerle in Pforzheim and dates back to the 1980s. This handcrafted, precious bracelet captivates with the exclusivity of its materials and its timeless design. An independent appraisal confirms the quality of the materials used. Also, take a look at the bracelets with sapphires and rubies from the same manufacturer, which, due to their identical clasps, can also be worn together as a longer necklace.
