Victorian wedding bracelets are derived from a centuries old tradition! Bridal and wedding customs have evolved through the ages, but typically involved sentimental gifts with attached meanings. At the time of engagement, the first bracelet of a matching two-piece set was presented to the bride-to-be. The bracelet would be worn proudly up until the day of the wedding, at which point the second bracelet was also worn. Often passed down from a mother to her daughters, the bracelet sets were sometimes separated, making the Victorian era sets that still remain intact a special and collectible treasure!

This fantastic and unique wedding bracelet set from the Victorian era (ca1880s) is a beautiful example of the romantic tradition! The wide bangles are crafted in 14kt yellow gold, and feature a fabulous matching design that graces the front surface. The bracelets have a beautiful black enamel tracery designs that go all around each bracelet. Both bangles are hinged at the side with a push catch to open the bangles. Stylish and versatile, the bracelets can be worn separately, or stacked together to create the illusion of a single wide bangle.
