Triple-Strand Braid-Link Yellow Gold Bracelet

This item is a highly decorative yellow gold bracelet featuring a complex, triple-row woven or braided link construction. The design consists of interlocking circular and oval links that create a substantial, dimensional texture reminiscent of traditional Byzantine or panther-link styles. Its overall aesthetic suggests a late 20th-century vintage, likely from the 1970s or 1980s, an era when bold, chunky gold jewelry was highly fashionable. The bracelet's high-shine finish and rich yellow color indicate either high-karat gold (such as 14k or 18k) or a high-quality heavy gold plating over a base metal. The bracelet is finished with a traditional spring-ring clasp attached to a decorative end-cap, which appears to be in functional condition. Although no maker's marks or hallmarks are clearly visible in the image, the uniformity of the weave suggests a high level of machine-assisted craftsmanship. Regarding its condition, the piece shows a gentle patina with minor surface scratches consistent with careful previous wear. No significant kinking, broken links, or major repair work is evident from the provided view. The weight and flexibility of the weave are indicators of its quality, as the three parallel strands remain aligned while maintaining enough fluidity to drape comfortably around the wrist.
