Key Features
Handcrafted delicate filigree, sought-after mid-century vintage aesthetic, genuine silver content (needs testing), and timeless panel-link design.
Authenticity Indicators
High confidence as vintage handmade jewelry. Look for '800', '925', or 'Sterling' stamps on the clasp or end-rings; if missing, it should be acid tested for silver content.
Flaws to Note
Heavy oxidation/tarnish throughout. One jump ring at the end appears slightly bent. The spring ring clasp may be a later replacement/repair.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Etsy (best for vintage jewelry), eBay (highest reach), or Ruby Lane (if verified high-grade silver).
Selling Tips
Do NOT over-polish; collectors often prefer the original patina. Use keywords like 'Cannetille', 'Artisan', and 'Lace Silver'. Include macro photos of the wirework and a photo of the bracelet on a wrist for scale.
