McCLELLAND BARCLAY Sterling Silver Repoussé Art Deco Dove Bracelet
McCLELLAND BARCLAY Sterling Silver Repoussé Art Deco Dove Bracelet
Stylized doves are a classic Art Deco motif. This McClelland Barclay bracelet has three dove links alternating with raised bubble-like links. The very Art Deco-looking links have been made in the repoussé style, where the silver is hammered from behind, a technique often seen in quality handmade Mexican vintage silver jewellery. The bracelet is in excellent vintage condition, with a nice soft patina. Length includes clasp.
Year Made: 1938-1943
Condition: excellent vintage
