Vintage Modernist Opal and Gold Articulated Panel Bracelet, by Burle Marx
Vintage Modernist Opal and Gold Articulated Panel Bracelet, by Burle Marx
Striking, Strong.
We were poring over a display case of antique jewels when our eyes latched onto this stunning vintage gold and opal bracelet — the unmistakeable work of Brazilian jeweler Haroldo Burle Marx.
Nine panels of gold in the signature Burle Marx finish are bezel set with glowy specimens of opal. The smaller opals are cabochon, the center opal is slightly convex. The panels are hinged, forming a bracelet that is halfway toward a bangle.
We have long admired Burle Marx’s bold, architectural jewels and were delighted to find this piece — gorgeous and so wearable.
Shown on a 6 inch wrist. Safety 8 catch present.
Marked for Burle Marx, 750.
18k gold, opal.
Dimensions and weight:
● 6.5 inches long (measured on the inside)
● 18.4 mm wide (central element), 11.3 mm wide (with very slight variations among the rest of the elements)
● 5.3 mm deep
● 39 grams
Period: 20th century (1960s/70s)
*Please note that all dimensions and weights are approximate. Age-commensurate wear may be present. Note that upon close inspection, we believe that there was an adjustment/repair made at some point to the bezel of the central panel to secure the gemstone.
*For deliveries outside of the continental U.S., please contact us for shipping information.
