Description

View Faux Coral Bead Bracelet Gold Tone Braided Rope Vintage 1950s Torsade 7 Inch with current marketplace pricing, condition, product images and item details. The construction is especially appealing. It has the glamorous resort-inspired look that made coral-colored jewelry so fashionable during the period, without representing the beads as natural coral. This striking 1950s bracelet combines warm gold-tone metalwork with vivid coral-colored faux beads in an unusually dimensional braided design. Multiple rounded and twisted gold-tone strands weave together to create a substantial rope-like bracelet, while tiny coral-red beads are worked intermittently through the braid for a wonderful contrast of color and texture. The construction is especially appealing. Rather than a simple chain, the bracelet is built from intertwined sculptural links accented by finer twisted rope elements, creating the lush, layered appearance associated with mid-century torsade and woven costume jewelry. A large domed textured box clasp provides an ornamental finishing touch, while the attached safety chain adds the extra security commonly found on better mid-century bracelets. The combination of elaborate gold-tone construction, decorative box clasp, safety chain, and saturated faux coral coloring is consistent with 1950s costume jewelry design. It has the glamorous resort-inspired look that made coral-colored jewelry so fashionable during the period, without representing the beads as natural coral. The bracelet is unsigned. Why You Will Be Obsessed With It The coral-red beads absolutely pop against the rich gold-tone metal. The braided rope construction gives it fabulous dimension from every angle. The oversized textured clasp looks like part of the design rather than just hardware. The original-style safety chain adds wonderful mid-century character. It has the substantial look of luxury statement jewelry without being fine jewelry. Perfect for adding a warm Mediterranean or resort-inspired accent to a bracelet stack. Condition Very good vintage condition with age-appropriate surface wear and variation to the gold-tone finish visible on close inspection. The faux coral-colored beads remain bright and provide excellent contrast against the metalwork. The braided construction presents beautifully, and the textured box clasp and safety chain are present. Please review the photographs closely as they are part of the condition description. Measurements Approximately 7 inches long, or 17.8 cm, when fastened. The bracelet has a substantial dimensional braided profile and is shown on the sizing mandrel for scale.
