One nineteenth century onyx and gilt charm bracelet with seven round cabochon cut black onyx intaglios that have micromosaic images of three birds, a goat, a sheep, a deer, and a dog. The intaglios are alternated by round gilt sections of floral and geometric designs. There are two gilt sections with seed pearls in a horseshoe pattern, with a larger seed pearl in the center. The clasp has a clover with a central seed pearl, along with a safety chain. This piece is unsigned and was likely a souvenir piece from The Grand Tour period.
Bracelet length: 7.5 in x width: 13 mm x depth: 7 mm; Gross weight: 19.9 dwt.
