Red Bracelet Appraisal

Red Beaded Bracelet

This is a red beaded bracelet, approximately 7 to 8 inches in length, featuring numerous faceted red beads, likely made of glass or crystal, each catching the light to create a sparkling effect. The beads are arranged in an alternating pattern, possibly with smaller clear or gold-toned accent beads interspersing the main red ones, though the resolution makes it difficult to discern precisely. The bracelet appears to be hand-strung, with a visible gold-toned wire or thread weaving through the beads, forming a distinctive, somewhat undulating or corrugated pattern. At each end of the bracelet, there is a gold-toned metal finding. One end features a decorative, pave-set cubic zirconia or rhinestone embellished component, approximately 1-inch in length, connected to an open jump ring. The other end terminates with a simple, round jump ring, indicating that a clasp is either missing or deliberately omitted, perhaps designed to attach to another piece of jewelry or a specific closure system. The metal components show a bright, polished finish with no visible tarnishing. The overall condition of the bracelet appears good, with no obvious signs of chips, cracks, or missing beads. The craftsmanship suggests a handmade or small-batch artisan piece, possibly from the early 21st century given the style of the faceted beads and findings, aiming for a delicate and elegant aesthetic.
