Victorian 20k Yellow Gold Articulated Turquoise and Garnet Snake Bracelet

This remarkable Victorian-era snake bracelet, crafted in rich yellow gold, is a stunning example of the period’s fascination with symbolism and exquisite craftsmanship. The articulated design allows the bracelet to move fluidly, mimicking the natural sinuous motion of a serpent—a true testament to the skill of 19th-century goldsmiths. The snake’s head is beautifully adorned with vibrant turquoise cabochons, symbolizing protection and eternal love, while deep red garnet eyes add a mesmerizing intensity. A matching drop pendant, further embellished with turquoise and garnet, completes this enchanting design.

During the Victorian era, snake motifs held deep symbolic meaning, representing eternity, wisdom, and devotion. Most notably, Prince Albert gifted Queen Victoria a serpent ring as an engagement token, solidifying the snake as a powerful emblem of love and commitment in 19th-century jewelry. This exceptional bracelet captures both the artistry and sentimentality of the era, making it a timeless treasure of Victorian elegance.
