DESCRIPTION

A striking signed Whiting & Davis hinged bracelet featuring a clear intaglio portrait cameo set within an ornate gold tone openwork frame.

FROM THE HOUSE

A proper Whiting & Davis oddity for the jewelry box — not the expected mesh purse, not a quiet little bracelet, and certainly not forgettable. The clear intaglio portrait gives it that antique vanity-table feeling, while the ornate gold tone setting brings enough drama to make it feel collected rather than merely worn.
