Grete Prytz Kittlesen Design for J. Tostrup
This bracelet is actually gold vermeil with white enamelling.
I got most of the black grunge off so it actually looks cool.
Here is description from Andrea Fatell on same piece:
Wonderful sterling reptilian like sterling bracelet designed by Grete Prytz for Jacob Tostrup, Norway. The back round of the bracelet is textured and oxidized. Some of the oxidation extends onto the punched out pieces that look like reptile scales. These pieces were made with and without enamel. I offered one with enamel a few weeks ago and then was shocked to locate another without enamel. This bracelet came with the marching pin which I am listing separately. A wonderful example of Norwegian mid-century jewelry, this bracelet measures 6" around with a 1" opening so for a 7" wrist. It is in fine original condition and signed for J. tostrup as shown in the photo. Please see the matching pin for a spectacular matching set.
