A stunning Art Deco silver bracelet with a chequerboard design. The technique used is called \u201cNiello\u201d and was practiced by French and Russian jewellers. They heated, to melting, a mixture of silver, copper, sulphur and lead to create a gunmetal or charcoal grey tone, and poured it on to silver which had previously been gouged with minute continuous patterns that were geometric or taken from nature.
