Antique Victorian enamel bracelet taille d' epergne wedding bangle hinged floral design bangle

This is a GOLD plated hollow  taille d' epergne 5/8" wide  victorian bracelet that has the most beautiful black enamel floral designs on both sides. Many of these were sets, and were called wedding bracelets. Taille d' epergne is essentially a reversal of the champleve enamel method as only outlines or shallow channels are sunk into the metal and filled with opaque black, blue or red enamel. The enamel lines are stoned or polished smooth to lie flush with the reserved metal.. THis bracelet has a great working clasp and hinge and has no dings or dents. It is in fine condition with very little if any enamel loss. This also has its original safety chain. The  bracelet measures 7 3/4" long on the inside and is oval so it won't slide on your wrist as much as a round one would. Great condition too.  The wear is only on the inside and that is mostly aged patina. Hinge and clasp work well and it has its original safety chain.
