204 Admirers Rare Find
Written by Olly Gerrish

If you are looking for a really good articulated snake bracelet then you cannot get much better quality than this one. It is 18ct gold and was made circa 1910 in France. It is a finely woven design and coils around the wrist three times. The head has been beautifully engraved and his eyes have been set with small cabochon rubies. The snake has been a popular motif in jewellery for centuries. It was often seen as a symbol of wisdom, healing, and transformation. In addition, it was thought to be a powerful protector against evil forces.

Snake jewellery is very sought after today and this bracelet is a wonderful example to wear.
