[QUOTE="Any Jewelry, post: 2130309, member: 2844"]It is a beauty, ezeepass. Those safety latches were already used ca 1900, maybe earlier, I haven't been able to find info on that yet. Your bangle is inspired by Yemeni bangles, with those domes separated by 'bridges'. Occasionally the style is also seen in other parts of the Middle East and in North Africa'. Given the Orientalist theme, it could have some age. Here is a traditional 'dome and bridge' (my term, not official) bangle from Yemen: [IMG]http://www.jewelryamazing.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/antique-yemen-silver-filigree-bridal-dowry-bracelets.jpg[/IMG] [URL]http://www.jewelryamazing.com/vintage-jewelry/antique-yemen-silver-filigree-bridal-dowry-bracelets/[/URL][/QUOTE]
