This quality antique curb bracelet is completed with a heart padlock fastening and is modelled in 9ct gold, dating back to the Edwardian era.
This bracelet is all original and displays very pretty elongated curb links, complete with a safety chain. It also has hallmarks on each link, and the heart padlock dates to Birmingham, 1904, with an engraving on the back reading 'A Birch'.
Padlock bracelets became popular during the Victorian period, they were worn by women whose significant others were leaving for an extended period of time. The bracelet would be locked onto the woman’s wrist by the padlock charm, to which only her beloved would have the key- he would then open it upon his return.
This bracelet is a beautiful example of this style, which is in excellent antique condition, complete with a safety chain.
