Six oval green glass cabochons, each backed with gold foil that creates a deep, shifting sparkle from within — the stones reading somewhere between peridot and forest moss depending on the light. Each is set in a smooth bezel frame connected by bar links, the whole bracelet finished with a safety chain and spring-ring clasp stamped 1/20 12K gold filled — meaning the gold layer comprises at least 1/20th of the total metal weight, a durable quality construction standard widely used in American mid-century jewelry. Foil-backed art glass of this quality is a hallmark of the period — vibrant, deep, and impossible to replicate cheaply today.
