HAUTE COUTURE LUCITE BANGLE BRACELET~VTG ENAMEL FLOWERS~SHELL SEASHELL BUTTERFLY

Designed a few more enameled bracelets in my flower bouquet series, this one the second in an autumn winter color combination which looks great with the brown black wardrobe. It is included in the group picture in this listing also. The first four I made were sold at an antique show in April, 2011 and I did not get photos of them all before they sold. I managed to get a group photo of the next ones I designed where this one is pictured. All of these bracelets feature vintage enamel flower pins, earrings, parts and pieces from the 1940's-60's era. Some have had to have the enamel restored but most I use are as found and arranged and applied onto lucite or plastic bangle bracelets. Most of the bangle bracelets are vintage but I have found some very cool looking new ones which look great with the older flowers. These are time consuming to design and construct but certainly fun~

This bracelet features a huge dark brown enameled flower with a bright red center along with a slightly bigger blossom painted in brown, tan and caramel colors. A flower cluster with peach, red and white flowers is tucked beneath the large petals of the deep brown flower and a shell butterfly is resting on a petal of the tan flower. All are clustered together making a beautiful bracelet. Quite impressive it is big, wide and very 3-dimensional with rhinestones adding a bit of sparkle to the piece. The bracelet itself is a wide, transparent, smokey grey, lucite bangle which sets the flowers off beautifully. It is a new bracelet, the smokey color with the silver speckles on it reminds me of a silvery snowy day. Had to have it, lol~ So... it's a fall winter piece in my mind, but with the bright red enamel and the butterfly this will look great most any time. This one will fit a medium- large wrist size. It is not as heavy or as thick as the pictured mum bracelet but it's a bit wider so you have to love big jewelry to wear it comfortably. I also balance the design out so if the bracelet fits your wrist size correctly it will not turn over. Most of the others pictured in the group have sold, but I will be adding to the line as often as possible. All are signed with my Ellen original copper or silver metal tags. This bracelet measures 1~1/2" wide with an inside opening which measures 2~5/8" in diameter. If I left anything out and you need more info just email me with any questions you may have.
