Product Info

I love Victorian silver bracelets and this one is truly special because it is in the shape of a crown. The decoration is classic Victorian eclecticism with two types of applied flowers, applied geometric banding, engraved foliage, and radiating engraved decoration. Crowning it all (pun intended) are silver balls lining the top edge of the bracelet.

The bracelet flares out at the upper edge making it larger than typical for Victorian bracelets of this type (see below for more details about the dimensions).

  • Materials:

    Sterling silver

  • Size:

    approximately 6-3/4" circumference at the bottom, flaring out to approximately 7-1/8" at the top

  • Marks:

    This bracelet has a complete set of British hallmarks including the lion passant indicating that it is sterling silver; an anchor, indicating that it made in Birmingham; a lower case Gothic "t", the date mark for 1893. There is also a partial maker's mark which I couldn't decipher.

  • Age:

    1893

  • Condition:

    This bracelet is in good, wearable, condition with some repairs. When I got the bracelet there were two silver balls missing at the peak of the crown and a spilt in the silver. My jewelry laser welded on two matching silver balls and secured the break, and under magnification these repairs are visible (shown in the close-up photo of this area). On the plain back side of the bracelet there are also a bunch of small dings typical of these bracelets. Finally, the clasp is nice and secure, but the two sides of it are slightly out of line and require a slight push to align them when putting it on. Nevertheless, crown-shaped Victorian bracelets like this are quite rare, and this one is beautiful and has many more years of wear left in it.
