Art Deco French Platinum 16ct Sapphire and 10.36ct Diamond Bracelet

This is an absolutely stunning line bracelet from the Art Deco period.  Made in platinum, this gorgeous piece is comprised of 40 French cut sapphires and 148 old European cut diamonds set in forty platinum links. Each link features one miligrain set French cut .40 carat vibrant blue sapphire and four sparkling .07 carat diamonds. The old European cut diamonds are bead set in miligrain boxes and range in color from H/I with VS2-SI1 clarity. The diamonds and sapphires are set in what appears to be three rows and the sapphires are raised slightly above the diamonds which gives the bracelet a 3 dimensional look.  A beautiful engraved pattern accents the sides of the bracelet. The estimated 16 carats of sapphires and 10.36 carats of diamonds make this a very special bracelet. The box links hinge together and move freely, giving the bracelet a comfortable level of flexibility when worn. The piece opens and closes at a push clasp that is hidden within one of the links of the bracelet and is secured by a double safety hooks on each side.   The bracelet tests completely as platinum, weighs 26.5 dwt, is 7 ¼ inches long and 10.3mm wide.  This is a wonderful piece and really makes a statement when worn.
