#JOTW Original Art Deco OMC and Onyx Bracelet

[Catmom]

It's here and it's amazing! I've been on a bit of a black and white kick the last few years as well as anything with old cuts. Hubby knew I was looking for a vintage old cut diamond and onyx bracelet and he wanted to find one for my birthday next month. I was having a hard time locating one that was a true vintage in a price that I wanted to pay. Hubby spotted this one on 1st Dibs and started the negotiations. A week and a half later it was mine! It's English, Art Deco with a 1ct central OMC, G, SI surrounded by 8 collet set OMCs/OECs, G-H, VS-SI and calibre cut Onyx. It has almost all of its teeny milgraining left and the engraving on the side is still fairly sharp. It looks like another one of those pieces that was rarely worn. The best part is it's almost a perfect match with my Edwardian OEC and Onyx Brooch. I can't wait until I can wear it. My stitches come out later today so hopefully the bandages will be at a minimum and I can get a bracelet on again. No sun today so for now I only have a few indoor pics. More tomorrow hopefully sans bandage.

Thanks! Stitches are out and I'm recovering but I found out today I need another surgery in the same hand. I'm putting that one off for awhile. I need to recover from this one first!

Thanks! We're supposed to have some sun tomorrow and my huge bandage is gone.

That’s just stunning!

So very beautiful and a precious acquisition.
The quality and detail in the workmanship is from days gone by and difficult to find in this modern world.
Wear her in good health you lucky gal you.

It's so gorgeous! Everything about it is perfect!

 

[Ionysis]

Oooh I love that! The shape and the intricacy of the design - it is so well executed. Is nice to see an art deco piece which has some curves and flow like this. Very jealous!

 

[mellowyellowgirl]

Perfect match with the brooch! I actually thought you bought both as a set upon first glance before reading your post!

It looks fabulous on you!!!
