Token Of Love

Token of Love Bracelet is inspired by the diamond bracelet designs being made by the leaders in fine jewelry at the turn of the 20th century. A central ornament consisting of an oval gemstone or CZ, surrounded by a series of smaller gemstones or CZs, set and arranged in the pave ́ style. Extending from the central beaded ornament are Peyote stitch extensions that terminate in beaded, gem or CZ set end-stone pivots. One pivot leads to another as the bracelet works its way around the wrist to end with a toggle and loop closure.
