(SOLD) Vintage French Paris Icons Gold Charm Bracelet
(SOLD) Vintage French Paris Icons Gold Charm Bracelet
Chic, Collected.
We are very particular about charm bracelets—they must tell a story, and they must feel elegant and composed. Needless to say, it was a coup de foudre when we laid eyes on this exceptional vintage French bracelet, adorned with nine charms of Paris icons.
The bracelet itself is a classic curb of perfect proportions for daily wear—substantial, yet sleek and refined. Each charm is three-dimensional and thoughtfully chosen, miniature representations of Paris: the Eiffel Tower, Arc de Triomphe, the column at Place Vendôme, the July Column at Place de la Bastille, the Luxor Obelisk at Place de la Concorde, the Opéra Garnier, La Madeleine, Notre-Dame Cathedral, and a Parisian pissoir. The narrative is cohesive, the scale unified—the whole an eloquent love letter to Paris. A charm bracelet done exceptionally well, at heirloom quality.
Likely dating to the 1930s–40s, based on the streamlined, architectural design language seen across several of the charms, this bracelet appears to predate the larger, clunkier charm bracelets of later mid-century decades. Several charms share a refined, Art Deco sensibility, imparting the impression of an early piece.
We are hopelessly enamored with this refined example of a Paris charm bracelet—French, edited, intentional, and entirely wearable.
Marked with a French maker’s mark and assay mark on the bracelet (partially worn), as well as French eagle’s heads on all charms except the Luxor obelisk. Several charms also bear maker’s marks.
A hidden safety latch is present at the secure integrated box clasp.
Additional close-up views of individual charms are available upon request.
