This estate yellow gold bracelet of European provenance is crafted in 18k yellow gold, weighs 40.6g and measures 7.5 inches long, 13.5mm wide and 3mm deep. Inspired by the renowned 'honeycomb' design created in the 1930's and in vogue during the following decades, this alluring 1950's gold bracelet comprises three adjacent rows of flexible hexagonal plaques rendered in artfully textured, matt yellow gold on the upper side and polished yellow gold on reverse. These fascinating hexagonal links are exquisitely textured with delicate linear patterns, horizontal lines adorning the middle row and 'en diagonal' on the side rows, producing an impressive pattern. Contour-matched hinged rectangular panels rendered in untextured yellow gold with artfully scalloped upper rims adjoin the hexagonal links, creating an absorbing glittering effect. The reverse depicts a skillfully perforated surface and the enchanting 'honeycomb' bracelet is secured by means of a well-constructed tongue-and-groove slide-in clasp. The latter is stamped '750' denoting the European purity mark for 18k gold and '91VR' most probably digits and initials of an Italian province.
