Vintage Goldette NYC Silver-Tone Double Curb Link Bracelet with Figural Clasp | Victorian Revival Costume Jewelry | 1950s–1970s
This striking vintage Goldette NYC bracelet features a bold silver-tone double-strand curb link design, finished with an ornate figural clasp believed to depict an animal head—often identified as a lion or dragon. The sculptural clasp serves as both a functional closure and a dramatic focal point, reflecting the richly detailed aesthetic of Victorian Revival costume jewelry.
The bracelet’s substantial weight, layered chain construction, and integrated safety chain are hallmarks of mid-20th century statement jewelry, designed for both style and security. Pieces like this were popular from the 1950s through the 1970s, when designers drew inspiration from antique and heraldic motifs.
About the Maker – Goldette NYC
Goldette was a respected line of high-quality costume jewelry produced by the Circle Jewelry Company, founded by Ben Gartner in New York City in the late 1950s. Known for its luxurious, antique-inspired designs, Goldette jewelry was manufactured in Rhode Island and produced from approximately 1955/1958 through 1977. Today, signed Goldette NYC pieces are highly collectible for their craftsmanship, dramatic styling, and historical revival influences.
