Antique 15ct Gold Curb Bracelet with Vintage (1958) 18ct Heart Padlock Clasp
A beautifully made curb bracelet that would have had the original purpose of adding charms to for the perfect charm bracelet. We love it without charms to show off the solid elongated curb links and rich buttery gold.
The bracelet links are solid 15ct gold with just the right amount of patina from its old age. The links have an elongated design, perfectly moulded to each other so they sit beautifully when worn. The heart padlock clasp is a rare thing in its own right. It's made from 18ct gold which is a rarity to find, with all of its original hallmarks so we know it came from the renowned jewellery designer Georg Jensen's London shop.
This bracelet is very typical to what Georg Jensen decided to do in the 1950s-70s from his London store. He became well known for his charms and charm bracelets and this piece has survived the times!
Condition: Great vintage condition with light wear commensurate with age. The clasp is strong and secure with a few light surface scratches. There is a safety chain attached. Some of the links show light wear, but can only be seen on close inspection and does not impact the strength of the bracelet. There is hardly any wear between the links.
Hallmarks: Every link is stamped 15.625, some are worn away slightly but most are visible. The heart padlock is hallmarked Crown 18 for 18ct gold, Leopard head for London and a date letter for the year 1958. There is also a makers mark GJLd for Georg Jensen.
