Antique silver bracelet set with small round coral cabochons. Rococo revival decorated panels with scrolls and swirls. 18cm length

A beautiful antique bracelet with historical significance and intricate design details. The presence of coral cabochons and the use of continental 835 silver indicate a piece that likely dates back to the late 19th to early 20th century, as this type of silver was commonly used in that time period. Germanic silverwork is also renowned for its craftsmanship and attention to detail during this era.

The rococo revival stylized panels adorned with scrolls and swirls reflect a design influence from the Rococo period, which was characterized by ornate and decorative motifs. This further adds to the historical and aesthetic value of your bracelet.

The rectangular panels, each measuring 30mm x 20.6mm, contribute to the overall structure of the bracelet, creating a cohesive and visually pleasing piece. The presence of the "835" marking indicates the silver content, which is slightly lower than sterling silver (which typically has a purity of 925).

The ornate clasp and the attached safety chain are practical features that ensure the bracelet remains securely fastened while being worn. The fact that the clasp snaps shut securely suggests that the piece has been well-preserved over the years.

The mention of a replaced coral cabochon indicates that the piece has undergone some restoration, which is not uncommon for antique jewelry. The fact that the replacement stone is fairly well matched suggests careful consideration to maintain the overall aesthetic.

Overall a unique and valuable piece that captures the essence of its era's design trends and craftsmanship. It's a tangible connection to history and artistry, making it a treasured item for collectors and enthusiasts of antique jewelry.
