(SOLD) Antique French Gold and Rose Cut Diamond Buckle Bangle
Eternal, Bonded.
In the Victorian era, the buckle in jewelry symbolized the eternal bonds of friendship and love — often between the giver and receiver. This enduring buckle motif is front and center in this French late 19th century bangle — embellished by antique rose cut diamonds set in silver over gold. The bangle itself is a mellow rosy gold. More than 100 years old, this piece is surprisingly contemporary in feeling — sentimental, but streamlined, and supremely wearable today.
Bangle is hinged on the side, with a secure box clasp and safety chain. Buckle is decorative only (non-functional).
Marked with French eagle's head, French rhinoceros’ head, and maker’s mark.
18k gold, silver, diamond.
Dimensions and weight:
● 17 cm / 6.7 inches inside circumference (approximately); 6 cm x 5 cm
● 20 mm wide
● 8.5 mm deep at deepest point (buckle)
● 29.8 grams
For reference, the bangle is shown on a 6 inch wrist.
Period: Victorian
*Please note that all dimensions and weights are approximate. Age-commensurate wear may be present. Of note: The bangle has some shallow impressions from normal wear and tear over more than 100 years. — primarily to the back/area near clasp. This wear does not readily photograph — to see a video view, please contact us or send a DM on Instagram.
*For deliveries outside of the continental U.S., please contact us for shipping information.
