Miss Grant has merged period and modern. A 14k gold, enamel late Georgian buckle combined with 22K modern ball chain creates a charming one of a kind bracelet. It has been topped off with two articulating baroque pearls,just to enhance an already charming piece. 6 1/2" long by 1" wide.We do want to mention the enamel is slightly worn due to age and could be restored but we love it exactly as it is shown. It does not diminishes it's charm and does maintain the authenticity as an antique. Hope you will love it too. Some of Miss Grant's original designs can be seen at James Robinson located on Park Avenue in New York City and by appointment as well.
