I just purchased this bracelet but then fell in LOVE with another similar but chunkier bracelet. I’m putting a feeler to see if there is any interest in this one.
It’s in impeccable condition for its age (rare find) and has been well kept by its original owner. I got it for a great deal considering condition, size, and gram weight.
Here is the description from Etsy seller
“Created in 9 karat gold by Benjamin Henry Britton and Sons, this attractive bracelet is comprised of sizable 9mm curb links, brought together with a heart shaped padlock clasp. A popular item in Victorian and Edwardian times. The style of link is very similar to the best quality Albert watch chains of the time.
The chain features engraved links to one side that alternate between plain and engraved every two links.
To the reverse, every link is stamped with 9 karat gold mark and bears no engravings.
Sometimes known as a 'night and day' bracelet, as the plain side would be worn to the outside in Victorian daytime and reversed to the more elaborate side in the evenings.
The gold clasp is also marked to the reverse as 9 karat gold and the makers mark for Benjamin Henry Britton and Sons. This prolific jeweler was founded in 1855, and in the early 20th century made cases for Rolex watches.
Very good overall condition for age.
The clasp functions well and there is the added security of a safety chain. Please be sure it fits over your hand in the unclasped position as the safety chain only allows a certain amount of opening. This could be removed though.
24cm / 9.5 inches in the open position.
17cm / 6.75 inches when closed”
