This beautiful Victorian 9ct solid gold curb link bracelet has nice thick links and a charming heart shaped padlock clasp. The bracelet has the lovely rosy glow seen in antique gold and it is absolutely overloaded with large polished chunks of natural Baltic amber 'charms'.

An absolute classic these watch chain style bracelets with heart padlocks were a popular and enduring engagement gift during the sentimental Victorian era. The original sweetheart bracelet, the heart padlock proclaimed "you have my heart". Ancient amber with its protective qualities was thought to bring about good luck and fortune, not surprisingly this natural material full of mystery also found its way into romantic jewelry of the day.

There are 35 amber charms on this bracelet and no key is required to open the padlock, the top simply pushes in at the nub to open and then snaps tightly closed when pushed down. The padlock is fully detachable from the bracelet so its lovely to find them still together after all these years and the bracelet has the added benefit of its original safety chain.

To say this is lovely is an understatement and it is as wearable today as it was over 100 years ago. Perfect as a signature piece, a truly outstanding antique charm bracelet, very unusual!
