The bracelet is formed from a series of finely made octagonal bloodstone panels, each cabochon bezel-set in rich 15K gold and linked to create a fluid, elegant line around the wrist. The stones are subtly graduated, with slightly larger panels at the centre, a quiet refinement typical of Georgian jewellery.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eThe bloodstones are of excellent quality; a deep, velvety green ground enlivened by vivid red flecking. In the Georgian period, bloodstone was highly prized, associated with courage, protection, and vitality, and often worn as a talismanic stone. Its use here, combined with the restrained gold settings, reflects both the taste and symbolism favoured at the turn of the 19th century.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eThe bracelet fastens with a traditional tongue clasp, which is firm and secure, and the overall condition is excellent, with the stones well preserved and the gold retaining a pleasing, warm tone. A particularly wearable and well-proportioned example of Georgian hardstone jewellery, equally striking worn alone or layered with other antique pieces.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003eThe bracelet weighs 14.6g and measures approximately 17cm in length. Each bloodstone panel averages around 16 × 13mm. The piece is unmarked, as expected for the period, and tests as 15K gold throughout.\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Ravensbury Antiques","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49000239137076,"sku":"1017810239","price":12781.0,"currency_code":"CNY","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0708\/6784\/5428\/files\/0G2A7979_7cc34d4e-daad-41a4-af2a-2b698717340b.jpg?v=1768852793","url":"https:\/\/ravensburyantiques.com\/zh-cn\/products\/early-19th-century-georgian-bloodstone-bracelet-in-15k-gold-england-c-1800-1820","provider":"Ravensbury Antiques","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
