And it’s a Brighten bracelet! Unfortunately it’s in pretty bad shape. Caught the fever after work and started digging in the front yard lol It’s finally pretty outside and warmed up. Yesterday the high was 43 and low was 28. Today the high was 70. I’m sure I’ll be sick again but I’m taking advantage of this nice weather! Happy hunting!

Thanks! I wish I could find some gold! Brighten jewelry is usually solid brass or zinc alloy dipped in silver. It's really heavy jewelry and this bracelet new would be around $100. Not so much in this shape lol Some rings are sterling silver. I may wait until it gets dark and hit the edge of the yard by the road. So many people walk up and down it all day. I might find more goodies!

Thanks! Brighten jewelry is usually toned like that. Like the black looking “engravings”. On the top edges of the heart you can see the silver chipping off. My MIL has a HUGE collection of Brighten. She thinks it’s one of her pieces that one of the kids may have taken home and lost some years ago lol It was about 4 inches deep though.
