Romantic bracelets are a typically British invention. Always ready to give beauty and romance a place in everyday life despite the proverbial stiff upper lip, the fashion for meaningful bracelets flourished like no other jewelry phenomenon in Great Britain in the decades around 1900. Bracelets with colored gemstones shining in the warm glow of the rose gold typical of the time were particularly popular - they are still a treasured gift today. Whether as a bar bracelet or in a curb pattern, they add a playful, personal touch to the wrist. This bracelet is a classic bar bracelet - or gate bracelet - consisting of gold bars that are linked together so that they can be moved. It is set with ten Persian turquoises, which appear to float in delicate bezel settings on small bars. With its light blue color, the turquoise is reminiscent of the flowers of the forget-me-not - and this is precisely the literal function in which it was often used in jewelry: as a symbol of loving remembrance. This romantic piece of jewelry originated in England around 1900. A look at contemporary jewelry catalogs shows just how widespread this type of bracelet was at the time. We show a page from the 1901 catalog of the Goldsmiths & Silversmiths Company in London, which presents a very similar design.

Adorning your wrist is more for your own pleasure than anything else. Bracelets and bangles are one of the few pieces of jewelry that the wearer can look at without a mirror. Easy to move and sensual, they also attract attention - whether it is a delicate, swinging bangle from the turn of the century or a wide gold bracelet that is also an investment.
