Vintage Sterling Silver Red Glass Open Back Oval Link Bracelet

Description
A 1940s sterling bracelet of six faceted red glass ovals, each held in a crown of tiny fleur-shaped prongs. The settings are open at the back, so light passes through the stones and they glow like garnets or small embers. Ribbed bar links join the stations and give the piece a clean, tailored line. It sits flat on the wrist and clasps with a signed fold-over catch.
