A piece by Alain Duclos, a French jewelry designer and silversmith from the 1960s.
It features a magnificent clasp with a three-stage safety guard.
I have never seen anything like it.
It is a feat of meticulous craftsmanship that requires time and effort, impossible to achieve today in an era of mass production.
It is truly incredible, so please take a look at the photos.
Duclos is an obscure French jewelry designer, with almost no information or examples of his work remaining on the internet.
He expressed 1960s mid-century space-age designs
not only in bracelets, but also in rings, watches, and necklaces.
It is signed "A. DUCLOS."
It also bears an unidentified lozenge-shaped hallmark,
but it is almost certainly made of 925 silver.
Up close, the silver has a subtle, brushed hairline texture,
and the balance between that and the areas darkened by aging/sulfurization is magnificent.
It possesses a commanding, unmistakable presence.
For that reason, I have intentionally listed it with minimal polishing.
If you would prefer it to be polished to a shine, please let me know in the notes when purchasing, and I will polish it for you.
This is an extremely rare item that I feel I will never be able to restock again,
and in terms of both technique and design, it is fully comparable to other renowned brands.
A truly collectible piece of vintage silver jewelry.
*The silver has been cleaned and polished once.
