I thought I share this bracelet I just found. I thought it might be diamonds and gold maybe, but I'm pretty sure it's just brass and glass. I was leaving after hearing thunder and felt a little rain. It was a few feet from the edge. Only one of the stones(quartz crystal maybe) shows damage and it's probably brass plated copper. Happy Hunting!

Very Awesome find! And congrats on recovering it without mangling it as I am sure I would have :/

To me, it appears to be more of a art nouveau piece than a deco piece.

Thanks! I was surprised it was whole. It's missing some sort of clasp is all. I manage to always mix or just combine those two art styles:)

Very nice recovery, how tough was it to get that crud off the bracelet??
Congratulations
Thanks, It was mostly just mud. Water and a plastic brush. I plan on really cleaning it perhaps a quick soak in a pickle( light acid). Or maybe a vibrasonic for a while:) Solder a clasp on. I'll replace the bad gem and put it on ebay for the heck of it. Thanks fro the reply!
