Georgian Cut Steel Bracelet

988K
Written by Olly Gerrish

A good example of a cut steel bracelet that was made circa 1800-1820. It is hard to imagine how much work went in to creating cut steel jewellery. Each faceted and highly polished cut steel bead was riveted by hand. It must have taken hours and the result is stunning, especially in candle light which is what was intended.
Wolverhampton in the Midlands was the centre for making cut steel jewellery.
In the 1800s it was fashionable for wealthy ladies to wear elaborate jewellery. It may have been that steel jewellery was worn during the day as imitation jewels for safety. It was prized in its own right. It is as collectable today as it was in the Georgian period.
