Luxury Bracelet Appraisal

Tennis Bracelet

The item is a round, silver-toned tennis bracelet, primarily characterized by a continuous line of closely set, clear, faceted stones. Each stone appears to be square or cushion cut and is individually secured in a four-prong setting, ensuring maximum light exposure. The metal setting is bright and reflective, suggesting a rhodium plating over a base metal, possibly sterling silver or a costume jewelry alloy. The design is an 'eternity' style, where the stones encircle the entire band. There are no visible clasps, indicating it is likely a bangle or a stretch bracelet, though the lack of gaps between stones suggests a rigid bangle or a very well-integrated stretch mechanism not discernible from this angle. The stones are uniform in size and clarity, exhibiting good brilliance and fire, consistent with high-quality cubic zirconia or crystal rather than natural diamonds, given the uniform appearance and lack of inclusions typically seen in natural stones. The overall condition appears good, with no obvious missing stones or heavy tarnishing on the metal. There might be some minor surface scratches on the metal commensurate with gentle wear, but no significant damage or repairs are evident. The craftsmanship appears competent, with consistent stone setting. The style suggests a modern or contemporary period, likely post-1980s to present, as this type of continuous stone setting became very popular in costume and fine jewelry during this era.
