The design has an intricate link that, when put together in a repeating line, creates a three-dimensional ribbon out of gold that wraps around itself in the most elegant way. The center of the link has a matte texture from its Florentine finish, while the surface around the edge of the ribbon is constructed from twisted wirework. This results in contrasting horizontal and vertical planes with a lot of visual texture. The links attach at the bottom corners so seamlessly that the bracelet truly looks like a ribbon cascading around the wrist.

Marked as Tiffany & Co. and 1988. The Tiffany signature is hand carved, which is rare and makes this an even more special piece. The tongue of the bracelet contains the copyright mark, the Minerva mark for 18k gold, MC, the French ivy leaf, and French export marks for Paris. The bracelet comes in a beautiful Tiffany & Co. black velvet-lined box, perfect for presentation.

The bracelet measures 7.5” and is 7/16” wide. It weighs 34.25 grams. See less
