Unavailable
This is a really rare piece with some of the largest charms I have ever seen on a bracelet ( more like pieces that fit on a chatelaine). Just the purse or letter satchel that opens and closes is 1 1/4” x 1” and has a working latch. ( some of them are photographed near a modern dime so you can see just how large these are). I think most all the pieces are hallmarked too. Everything is sterling or 800 silver. I will give you a list of the charms with as much info as I can about each. The first charm is a working chased miniature button hook that is 1 3/4”. This not only has a loop that hangs it from a chain but it also has a hole that goes all the way thru it so something could be hung from either side of it. Then there is an 1890 Queen Victoria Hong Kong 5 cents. Next is a thick, double sided chased fob with hallmarks that I can’t make out. Next is a golden topaz topped watch key that measures almost 2” long with beautiful etchings on the sides. The purse is hallmarked CAN, an anchor, a lion and a small e. The next coin is a 3 ZEN 1897 that has fancy silver scroll work on the top to hold the coin on. Then there is a silver top to a chatelaine pencil. The lion is next and has a shield with a fleur de lis on it. The next one is a rotating flip fob with genuine bloodstone and carnelian ( carnelian has a crack) and is hallmarked with a small n, an anchor and a lion. The horseshoe is huge ( 1 1/4” long and 1” wide) and is marked WAB PAT 2-07-70 BCM BMC. Then there is a high riding boot with the initials JPH anchor lion and a small r. There is also a number 491553 on the bottom of the boot. Next is a working horse? bell with a red enamel cross and a saddle top and 800 on the top. The next coin is 1878 Victoria DC Brittanniar Regina FD. And last is the most beautiful bird cage shaped pomander or vinaigrette. The thick chain is also sterling and it measures 7 3/4” long. I have more photos of this if you want to see them, just email email me. This is not a tourist charm bracelet from the 20th century, but a genuine chatelaine charm bracelet from the 19th century ( 1800’s). The clasp works fine and all the charms are in very good condition. This is a real find and I hope it gets a good home because I think these are all original to this bracelet.
