Bypass Bracelet Appraisal

Gold-Tone and Pave Stone Bypass Bangle Bracelet

The item is a gold-toned cuff or bypass bangle bracelet, displayed within an open, purple velvet presentation box. The bracelet features a polished, curved band that gently tapers towards two decorative finials, which appear to meet or overlap at the front. Both finials are ornate, possibly heart-shaped or teardrop-shaped, and are fully encrusted with numerous small, glittering clear stones, likely diamonds or cubic zirconia, set in a pave or bead setting. The stones exhibit a bright sparkle, indicating good clarity and cut. The metal 'collar' or base supporting these stone-encrusted elements is also gold-toned and has a textured or wrapped appearance, adding to the visual appeal. The overall condition of the bracelet appears excellent with no visible signs of significant wear, scratches, or missing stones. The craftsmanship suggests a commercially produced fine jewelry piece. The gold tone is consistent and shiny. The bracelet is designed to be elegant and eye-catching with its sparkle and unique finial design. The velvet box, with the 'macy's' logo prominently displayed on the interior lid in a contrasting lighter shade, suggests the bracelet was originally retailed by Macy's department store. This association indicates a widely distributed, contemporary piece, likely from the late 20th or early 21st century.
