Antique Chinese? genuine ivory sterling braceletClick any image to see it full size
No words can describe this masterpiece, this cost me a fortune when I bought it, and for years people have been trying to buy it from me, but it is priceless really how can you put a price on an item like this !!You need a big strong wrist if you are going to wear this it is quite big, but it would look very cool on a man, it is a display piece really I used to display it with my ivory "NETSUKE" on a small cabinet.I guarantee this to be real ivory not bone I must say by now after years of collecting I do know the difference !! The detail on the silver work has to be seen to be believedIf you think my price on this item is too much think again it is cheap for what it is do your homework look for another !! It would be worth 1000's in an antique shop.Condition is perfect antique vintage there are no cracks in the ivory, silver part is not stamped but it is silver but what percentage I don't know it badly needs a clean with a silver cloth and the ivory could probably use a touch of almond oil but I do this regularly.Please contact me with questions I am happy to answer, bracelet is well and truly older than the embargo of 1976.I can try to post this bracelet overseas but you would be taking a chance it can not be insured as it is illegal to take ivory out of the country.Australian buyers must pay for registration or express mail so it is traceable you would be looking at around $9.00 postage.Weight is 110 grmsBracelet around is 26 cmGap in middle is 6cmIt is approx 1.5 cm wideOpening in front is 4cm Find this seller: eBay Feedback eBay Auctions eBay Me Page
