Description
22k antique pearl bracelet set with 8 cultured pearls, in the style of a ‘half’ bracelet.
The pearls are uniform in colour and size, each pearl set in a closed-back bezel that links to the next. The pleasure of this piece lies in its sparing use of suitably-sized pearls. It seems to manifest the pearls ever more.
Consistent with many old Peranakan bracelets, the 8 pearls interlinked to form an articulating bracelet. This means that the bracelet is flexible at every point, since the gold links also singularly articulate.
It is this delicate and ‘free’ aspect of Peranakan gold bracelets that give them a sense of weightlessness. We can see from historical photos, and still we observe present day, that stacking two or more bracelets and bangles allude to a sense of bohemian carefreeness. The ‘gypsy’ nature of Peranakan culture is understood by many Peranakans but not discussed enough 🙂
This pearl bracelet should be at least 60 years old, but the pearls are in excellent condition; the bracelet appears unworn.
