Designer Buckle Bracelet Gold Mesh Clear Rhinestones Signed buying Cindy Adams

Cindy Adams Bracelet Mesh Buckle Style Clear Stones Indigo Accents

ITEM: A strikingly good looking mesh and clear stone buckle bracelet from Cindy Adams. A higher end designer of contemporary costume jewelry working in the late 80s to 2000s. This bracelet dates to the 1990s by all accounts and has a timeless, classical look and style that reaches well into antiquity. Belts, Garters, Buckles have ling been used in jewelry and decorative arts and as with many classical motifs, have meaning beyond the surface design. Used frequently for Heraldic jewelry and design, the belt and buckle often frame a coat of arms and were standard garb for many brotherhoods such as the Loyal Order of the Knights of the Garter and the Black Watch. The design was also infused with a variety of meanings in Betrothal jewelry, representing such ideals as Loyalty, Commitment, Safety, Constancy and could also stand for the binding of one person/family/clan or group together. This beautiful take on a classic motif features a linked bracelet, the style of which is known as a “panther” link, creating a look of mesh. The buckle is highly stylized with an almost Trident shape, set with glittering clear stones, paste set into the buckle, fold over clasp and belt end. On each side of the buckle are two points of a navy blue enamel, raised to form the look of those bullet cabs used frequently in the Art Deco period. A very nice touch to my eye! The plated gold tone metals are high toned and mirror finish, extremely lustrous and bright. This bracelet is very well made and although Im not incredibly well versed with the maker, I will say that every piece Ive had occasion to view, handle or review, has been high end in make, materials and finish. This piece is no exception. Very stylish, very sparkly and as clean as they come; signed Cindy Adams, jeweled buckle bracelet. Just divine!

SIZE: A contemporary vintage piece, made with modern sizes in mind, this bracelet measures 8” long and is just shy of 3/4” wide. A jeweled folding clasp opens at the buckle side and connects to the bar end, creating a hidden clasp closure that fixes directly to the buckle. Again, a nice touch.

CONDITION: In very good vintage condition showing little to no wear buying apparent. This piece is very clean. I see no loss of stones, no signs of replacement or repair. Very lively, clear rhinestones with plenty of sparks, sizzles and shimmer. The plated gold tone metals are rich, bright and lustrous. I see no plate wear, no flaking or peeling, no areas of dullness or loss of tone. No rust or verdigris noted. About as clean as they come in a previously worn piece of 25-30 years. Not mint (because it has been worn and its out of the box) but pretty dang clean! I always recommend using your zoom feature to view all photos. This is to confirm the condition meets your own standards as our ratings may differ. I see no areas of concern whatsoever. Signature is legible and correct. A very well made, stylish and ultimately, very wearable piece of costume jewelry from designer Cindy Adams.
