Collection: Bracelets
Here is a wonderful collection of vintage McClelland Barclay bracelet styles. All were made by Rice-Weiner & Co. between 1938 - 1943.
Art Deco & Art Moderne bracelet styles: Some are gold-plated large statement cuffs or links studded with clear and colour rhinestones, like the oak leaf and rhinestone bracelet shown.
Sterling silver repoussé designs feature stylized Art Deco motifs inspired from nature: flowers, birds, woodland animals, even snails. Others have fun and familiar elements, such as playing cards. A few rare bracelets tell stories with their sterling silver charms. Some designs also have matching brooches, earrings, or necklaces.
