Victorian French Jet Coil Wrap Bracelet
While its name may sound delightfully moody and romantic, French jet is simply just a fancy term for old black glass. Forged in the great glass making countries of Europe, such as Austria and Bohemia, French jet was viewed as a cheaper alternative to the highly sought after and expensive Whitby jet. Though it may cost less than real jet, it doesn't mean this piece is a shrinking violet. This slinky coil wrap bracelet dazzles in any light with its faceted inky black glass. Strung on a piece of heavy spring steel, you can be sure that this bracelet will never lose its shape.
