A stunning substantial silver and black enamel bracelet by Topazio.
The bracelet boasts raised silver panels depicting landmarks, each flanked by a black enamel panel with silver foliate decoration in the art nouveau style. The bracelet is particularly interesting as it also embraces the art deco period of the time with its bold square panel desig.
The bracelet is opened by pressing a small button which is in the form of a flower. The bracelet clicks open and shut with ease and retains its original clasp.
The 'Topazio' maker's name is clearly stamped to the inside of the bracelet. The Topazio hallmark of a crowing cockerel with '833' silver purity is stamped to the inside of the clasp, dating the piece c.1938 when that particular hallmark was first introduced.
The bracelet has some light scratches commensurate with age, but remains in an excellent condition overall with no chips to the enamel and working clasp.
