Clagget Bracelet

This Art Deco platinum and enamel bracelet contains 626 diamonds, 73 emeralds, 48 sapphires, 20 rubies and 4 citrines. The bracelet was made by French jeweler, Geoffroy et Eisenmann, for Vever in Paris between 1923-1925 and was featured in the catalogue for the International Exposition of Modern Industrial and Decorative Arts of 1925 in Paris, winning the grand prix. It was a gift of Mr. C. T. Clagett to the Smithsonian in 1993.

PLEASE VIEW IN ORIGINAL FOR MAXIMUM SHARPNESS (because these automatically resized versions by Pbase are decidedly unsharp).
