One-Of-A-Kind Silver Bracelet

Post by Charles »

This is a very large, hand-made, ONE-OF-A-KIND cuff bracelet, made and signed by Johnathon Hummingbird with turquoise, coral, genuine cat claws, and a natural gold bearing druzy quartz. Notice the unusual colors in the crystal (I've circled them)... If you were to commission a cuff bracelet like this today, it would cost over $6,000.00 (and you couldn't get genuine cat claws or a gold bearing druzy quartz like this one).

I have other one-of-a-kind vintage and antique jewelry and collectible antiques to trade (or sell)... (I prefer trading for other things I'm interested in).

I collect vintage, antique, and mid-century modern coins, and more. If you have something I'm interested in, I'll be happy to consider trading. If not, we can work out a price you'll be happy with.

Wow, that's quite a piece, and I love the way he does his signature, but you said they were cat claws, and obviously they're not house cat claws :lol: , so do you know what kind they are? :?:

On my wrist, something that size would probably tip me over. :lol:

Probably mountain lion, cougar or puma.

This cuff is probably from the 50's and was originally made for a watch. The druzy quartz was set later. Speaking of which, the druzy is a WONDERFUL piece! It is gold bearing and has some colors in the crystal that are UNBELIEVABLE! Look in the white circle. What do you think caused those colors?

I have no idea, unless there's a bit of water in the crystals that's dispersing the light into rainbows, or if the gold could somehow cause it. :?: I honestly have no clue. :?

It is an amazing bracelet, looks like a mans to me. If you still have it could you get a better pic of the colors in the quartz? Do you mind people picking your brain? :D

Yes, it is a large man's cuff.

I'll try, but all I have is my phone. :(

>>>> Do you mind people picking your brain?

Not at all (what's left of it). ;)

I found some more (old) images of "THE CUFF." :D

I photo shopped them to fit here but there will be degradation. If you want to see images with better clarity, PM me w/your real world email address and I'll send you the UNTOUCHED files.
