Vintage 9ct Gold Flat Paperclip Link Bracelet With Heart Padlock Charm
I am extremely fond of this bracelet. Yes it’s super cool and wearable, but I’m really taken with the quality of it. The links are polished brightly on one side, and textured on the other. The padlock does not and never did open, it’s purely ornamental, and a (later) simple bolt ring secures the bracelet. The bolt ring kind of disappears to make a really neat seamless piece. A twist on the classic fetter link, it’s a gorgeous bracelet that you will reach for repeatedly.
