There is something deeply rare about an 18th century coral bracelet that has survived intact — and this Salmon coral bracelet is exactly that kind of survivor. Formed from handcarved beads ranging from 11 × 7 mm to 16 × 14 mm, with a single magnificent centrepiece bead measuring 40 × 22 mm, the bracelet wraps around the wrist in a cascade of warm, rosy-pink coral that glows with the soft luminosity only genuine, undyed Salmon coral can produce. At 60 mm in diameter, it fits with a generous, comfortable ease, and at 48.4 grams, it carries a satisfying, substantial weight that speaks to the density and quality of the coral itself.
The minor chips present are entirely normal for a piece of this age — honest marks of authenticity that no reproduction could ever replicate, and that every serious collector will immediately recognise and appreciate. This is not simply a bracelet; it is a fragment of the 18th century, worn on the wrist. Sourced from a European private collection and authenticated by our 3rd generation antique specialists at Kingdom of Antique Arts, Vienna.
A rare 18th century Salmon coral bracelet — a collector's piece of exceptional beauty and historical significance.
