Victorian Taille D’epargné Bracelet Set

This gorgeous bracelet set is crafted in 14k gold. At first glance, because of the black enamel, these could seem like mourning jewelry, but it is likely that the black enamel choice was purely aesthetic. Taille D’epargné is a technique where shallow engraved lines were filled with opaque enamel. These are likely of French origin, possibly crested for export.   Condition: Normal antique wear, some oxidation to the gold, minimal enamel loss  Metal: 14k Yellow Gold  Age: Late Victorian  Dimensions: 6.25” diameter
