Magnificent French Sterling Filigree Travel Charm Bracelet

Jewelry : Vintage : Silver, Sterling : French

 

For your consideration I am most pleased to present a French sterling silver travel charm bracelet done in some of the most lovely filigree work that I have ever seen. This hinged bracelet features 8 separate panels with a different memento applied to each. Created by the Maison Odiot silver company of France, this bracelet is hallmarked with their oil lamp with an "O" above it on the charm that dangles by a chain. It is also hallmarked with the French boar mark. It dates between 1906-1956. I suspect that is on the early side of that time frame, and this dating is based on the use of the manufacturer's mark.

The bracelet will fit a wrist between 6.5 and 7.5 inches. The panels are 1.25 inches tall and .75 inches wide. There are 9 applied charms including: Notre Dame, Invalides, Arc de Triomphe, Seal of the City of Paris, Sacre Coeur Montmarte, Opera House, Eiffel Tower, and a separate charm hangs from the chain that also has the "Tour Eiffel and Paris city emblem" on it. The back of that charm is stamped "Filigrane Depose." It has a hook style catch. There are no dents or dings in this fabulous bracelet!

This is not your usual tourist bracelet. This one is exceptionally high quality and just stunning. You will want to wear it every day because it is so gorgeous!
