Fine Jewelry Gemstone Bracelets Appraisal

Assorted Gemstone Stretch Bracelets (Set of 2)

This lot consists of two (2) stretch bracelets, both appearing to be crafted from various semi-precious gemstones and possibly some metallic spacer beads. The total weight of the two bracelets combined is 38 grams, as indicated by the digital scale in the image. Both bracelets are designed as single strands of beads strung on an elastic cord, allowing for a flexible fit. The first bracelet features a diverse array of bead types and colors. It includes polished, circular beads of materials such as green aventurine or jade-like stone, tiger's eye with its characteristic chatoyant bands, and what appears to be lapis lazuli, showcasing its deep blue hue with flecks of pyrite. There are also smaller gold-toned metallic spacer beads and a larger, darker gray or black bead (possibly hematite or obsidian) which serves as a central focal point. Additionally, there are sections with clear, possibly quartz beads, and violet or purple amethyst. Other beads exhibit mottled or speckled patterns in shades of brown, white, and pale blue, suggesting various jasper, agate, or other natural stones. The surfaces of the beads appear smooth and polished, indicating a standard tumble-polished finish. No obvious significant chips, cracks, or repairs are visible, but minor wear consistent with gentle use might be present upon closer inspection. The second bracelet, partially visible, seems to follow a similar multi-gemstone, multi-color aesthetic, incorporating shades of pink, yellow, and various patterned stones, also consistent with semi-precious gemstone styling. The elasticity of the cord allows for general sizing. The craftsmanship appears to be standard for mass-produced or artisan-made stretch bracelets, focusing on the aesthetic appeal of the assorted stones rather than intricate metalwork. Given the selection of stones and construction, these bracelets likely date from the late 20th century to the present day.
