Louis Masriera began making dramatic enamel and gold jewelry in Barcelona at the very beginning of the Art Nouveau movement. His first bold designs premiered in 1839 in the front window of his family's jewelry store, and was a great success. His family still carries on the enamel technique and tradition today. These stunning original Art Nouveau designs have been hand made in Spain, in uninterrupted production for the last 174 years, and each Masriera jewel is a masterwork of design and technique. The brand is synonymous for culture, art, history and, at the same time, uniqueness, innovation and the avant-garde. The bracelet measures 13mm wide and 7" in inner circumference, and is signed "Masriera" on the inside of the piece along with the serial number and gold purity "18k". This piece will be shipped in a jewelry gift box, and will come with a $13,000 insurance valuation report in the winning bidder's name by a graduate appraiser. (WEIGHT: 34.8 grams)
