<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Any Jewelry, post: 5458674, member: 2844&quot;]It is a gorgeous &#039;Trachten&#039; bracelet, a particularly nice example. Trachten is German for regional dress, which indicates their intended use, to be worn with regional dress.</p><p>If you google &quot;Trachten Armband&quot; you will see similar ones, although rarely as nice as yours.</p><p><br /></p><p>Although inspired by historic jewellery, Renaissance and Baroque, these are usually not antique, so not Austro-Hungarian. Most date from 1930s-now, they are still being made, mostly in Austria, some in southern Germany and occasionally the Czech Republic. So it whispered the right part of the world.<img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" /></p><p>The back on the central part of yours makes me think 1960s or later.</p><p><br /></p><p>Are your sure the gold is vermeil, or is it a small gold detail that was cast separately and attached to the silver? I have a few Trachten pieces that have that, a separately made gold detail.</p><p><br /></p><p>20th and 21st century Trachten jewellery tends to whisper, but don&#039;t believe them, just admire their beauty, and buy if the price is right.<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie75" alt=":playful:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Perfect present, and always good to treat yourself.<img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie49" alt=":happy:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> When is your birthday?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
