Vintage Gold-Tone Cherub Link Bracelet

This is a vintage multi-link costume jewelry bracelet featuring a romantic cherub or putti motif. The design consists of eight cast metal cherubs and a central puffy heart. At the center, two cherubs face one another, holding a polished heart charm. The remaining six links are individual winged cherubs in dynamic flying poses, connected by round jump rings to form a continuous chain. The metal exhibits a warm golden-yellow finish, though there is visible surface wear and oxidation consistent with age, particularly in the recessed areas of the casting where a darker patina has formed. The back of the links is hollow-cast or concave, a common technique in mid-to-late 20th-century costume jewelry to reduce weight. The bracelet is secured by a flat lobster claw clasp, suggesting a manufacturing date likely between the late 1970s and 1990s. The detail on the figures is moderately defined, showcasing the textured hair and wings of the figures. Condition is fair to good, with no broken links but significant tarnishing and plating loss visible across the surface. No manufacturer's marks or metal fineness stamps are visible in the provided image.
