Vintage Copper Link Bracelet with Abstract Curled Panels

This is a vintage articulated link bracelet, primarily constructed from copper, exhibiting a rich, warm, reddish-brown hue characteristic of the metal. The bracelet features a robust construction comprising multiple interconnected segments. The central design element consists of three prominent, oval-shaped panels, each adorned with an abstract, swirling, or wave-like pattern that gives a sense of movement and depth. These larger panels appear to have a slightly darker patina in the recessed areas of the design, enhancing the visual contrast and three-dimensionality. Each of these decorative panels is flanked by segments composed of multiple parallel, elongated, rectangular links, creating a flexible and aesthetically pleasing grid-like structure. The clasp at one end is a simple, dark-toned, probably base metal, fold-over style, indicating an effort to keep the focus on the copper elements. The opposing end of the bracelet finishes with a coiled spring-like element, likely integrated into the clasp mechanism or as an additional decorative/flexible link. The overall condition suggests some wear consistent with age, evidenced by minor surface abrasions and a characteristic natural patina that has developed over time on the copper. While no clear maker's marks or signatures are visible in the provided image, the design aesthetic points towards a mid-20th century (possibly 1940s-1960s) vintage, often associated with artisanal copper jewelry popular during that period. The craftsmanship, though not overly intricate, demonstrates a sturdy build, and the design is bold and statement-making. The dark tone of the clasp suggests it might be made from a different metal or has a different finish than the copper body.
