Forms that were once found in the field of goldsmithing and appealed to customers were often varied again and again for decades. The present bangle is an example of this: although its hallmark shows that it was presented to the inspection authority in the British city of Chester in 1911, its ornamentation corresponds to the jewelry of the historicism of the 1880s. From the beginning of the second half of the 19th century, goldsmiths were often inspired by antique jewelry, not only from the Renaissance, but even from ancient peoples such as the Assyrians and Etruscans. But it was not just a matter of simple copying: Soon modern jewellery was also enriched with the techniques and ornaments learned in this way, modified and combined in completely new ways. The present bangle features a centerpiece consisting of a ruby and eight diamond roses on a raised central field. Wrapped gold bands are semi-circular on the left and right and lead to the hoop, which is reminiscent of granulations known from Etruscan jewellery with cord soldering and small gold beads. The bangle is made from 9-karat gold and is also plated with fine gold, giving it a rich gold and matt shimmer. Together with the fine ornaments, the result is a magnificent, nostalgic look that was popular in the late 19th century and remained popular in England until the early 20th century. The bangle is in very good condition and can also be worn comfortably in everyday life thanks to its delicate format. It came to us from the south of England and was made in Henry Pope's workshop in Birmingham.
