Vintage Art Nouveau Floral Mourning Bracelet Fancy Acorn links

 

This beautiful and delicate looking art nouveau bracelet has survived well over 80 years and landed here in such nice condition that I think it needs an owner who will love it as much as its last. The bracelet has two larger links with acorns and acorn leafs. It is believed to have been the tree from which Jesus Christ's cross was made. In smaller pioneer cemeteries, it is common to place children's graves near oak trees. The oak tree was the tree of life in pre-Christian times. The Druids worshipped the oak. The oak, oak leaves and acorn can stand for power, authority or victory. Often seen on military tombs. This was probably worn by someone's loved one who passed and was a remembrance of them. The bracelet measures 7" long when closed and is 3/4" at its widest. It is silvertone in color and is very feminine and pretty.     VintageSparkles offers Layaway on all our pieces regardless of which site it comes from.All layaway payments will need to be in the form of a check or money order only.
