Sensational Victorian Pair of Amethyst Riviere Bracelets in Gold

A sensational Victorian pair of matched amethyst bracelets, each set with oval-cut natural amethysts with open backs that allow light to pass through the stones. The amethysts are soft purple and eye clean, with stations that vary slightly in size across both pieces. Hidden box clasps on each bracelet maintain an uninterrupted line of stones, and both retain their original safety chains. The pairing itself is the rarity here: finding two Victorian bracelets matched in design, stone quality, and proportion is uncommon, and wearing them together creates the effect of a single, more substantial piece. Women would wear matching bracelets on each wrist, it is also possible that these were made from a riviere necklace at some point. A fantastic find!
