RARE: This is a beautiful heavy gauge, high grade solid silver bracelet from Tamil Nadu, South India. This example is particularly beautiful with the attention to detail that has been paid in its construction.

All panels are decorated with finals, joined by five-lugged hinges and opens from the top to one side with a pin mechanism.
The bracelet will suit a medium size wrist and is comfortable to wear.
