Silvertone Rhinestone Bangle Bracelet

This is a silvertone rhinestone bangle bracelet, designed as a classic cuff style. The physical characteristics indicate a metallic base, likely a common base metal such as brass or copper, plated with a silvertone finish to emulate silver. The bracelet has a width of approximately 3 inches and a diameter of about 3 inches, consistent with chunky bangle designs. Its construction features a hinged mechanism, allowing the bracelet to open for easier wear and removal, with a clasp visible on one side. The majority of the bracelet's exterior surface is adorned with multiple rows of small, clear rhinestones, meticulously set to create a pave-like effect across its circumference. These rhinestones are brilliant-cut and appear well-faceted, reflecting light effectively, suggesting good quality for costume jewelry. The interior surface of the bracelet is smooth and polished, exhibiting the same silvertone finish. There are no immediately visible manufacturer's marks or signatures, which is common for mass-produced costume jewelry of this type. The overall condition appears good, with no obvious signs of missing rhinestones, heavy scratching, or significant tarnishing on the visible surfaces. The item weighs 35 grams, as indicated by the digital scale in the image, providing a precise measurement of its mass. This weight suggests a sturdy, rather than flimsy, construction for a costume piece. Given its design and materials, it likely belongs to a contemporary fashion period, possibly from the late 20th century or early 21st century, designed for ornamental wear. The craftsmanship, while not fine jewelry grade, appears to be consistent with good quality costume jewelry, ensuring the secure setting of the rhinestones.
