18k White Gold Wide Link Bracelet with Gold Bead and Twisted Rope Detail 53g

This minimalist design bracelet with subtle accentuations is a generous 8” long and 24mm wide. This piece is an example of resurgence of minimalistic Italian design that abandons the popularized traditional panther and chain link construction from earlier eras and the 2000s trend of charm/nominations bracelets. What gives this design its signature, is that it maintains detail and weight of previous style Italian gold bracelets, yet does so by masterfully embraced and executed minimalist elements maintaining the attention to subtle detail. The design exploration of this movement has prevailed since and has taken its place among the coveted Italian bracelet design of today. This piece weighs 53 grams, yet does not rely on the presentation of overt volume, but rather displays its elegance in an almost open lightness without losing the substantiality of the long history of Italian signature design. It is truly a wonderful example of stealth wealth. This bracelet features a link construction of pins that link elements of rope and bead segments. It has a sturdy plunger clasp with one safety catch. It is stamped "18k Italy", and signed/hallmarked “oTc”.
