Approx. Age: Vintage (Circa 1930s - 50s).
Size: Inside circumference measures almost 6" plus there is just over a 1" gap (making this bracelet fit an approx. 7" wrist). It is 3/4" wide across the face and weighs 24.2 g.
Condition: Vintage, good for its age, normal wear expected. This bracelet was polished brightly and subsequently "re-patined."
