Well, this is FUN! Received it in a small lot of belly dance repair items. Preliminary research hasn't gotten very far yet. Have found examples of the same bracelet...... but the info with each one is different as to the era it is from.
People identify these as being made in the 1930s and 40s OR the 1960s! Quite a range there. chuckle And I also need to check out the metal content. It just doesn't have that "sterling" appearance to me. I've made sterling silver jewelry off and on for decades.... it just has a certain "look" to it.
The faux 'stones' are actually a bright rich red instead of the ruby that the photos are showing. Someone had tried to bend it a bit so that it would fit their wrist better.... but its not too bad! All in all, and really cool bracelet to wear whenever I'm in one of those vintage tribal Bohemian moods!
