Antique 19th Century Imperial Russian Diamond & Sapphire Bracelet

$18,000.
The crowned double-headed eagle at the center of this grand bracelet is the Imperial coat of arms of the Russian Tsardom, a symbol Russia adopted from the Byzantine Empire in the 15th century and worn with unmatched splendor for four hundred years. Set in 14 karat gold against a Royal Blue enamel ground with platinum-set old mine cut diamonds carats totaling 4.75 carats along with 1.75 carats of smooth denim blue sapphires, this wide, 19th century Victorian bangle bracelet embodies the Russian national jewelry style at its peak—designed to blaze under candlelight and hold its own against heavy dark furs. Emperor Nicholas II alone distributed 2,000 Imperial eagle-bearing jewels every year as gifts of state, and this bracelet belongs to that tradition. Russian Imperial jewelry of this quality rarely surfaces outside of museum collections and auction houses. To wear it is to hold a piece of that vanished world.
