Navy Sweetheart bracelet is in excellent condition as is the original burgundy velvet presentation box. You would never know the velvet box is 65 years old! The only thing we note is a small tear where the bottom tip of the heart has pierced the velvet. Another view of the box and lid with bracelet. The bracelet has a mother of pearl top and a large USN insignia on the centerpiece which is 7/8 inch long. The band is just under 1/2 inch wide and has a little tarnish on the inside of the band  but rather than polish it and maybe affect the velvet box, we have left it as is. Will polish gently upon customer request. Bracelet will fit a small to medium wrist of about 6.75 inches. View with box closed. Order "SW-689costar-navy " $149.00.

Then, Berna wrapped the bracelet in a silk handkerchief and tucked it away in her cedar chest where it remained until her step-daughter found it a few years ago.

042phoenix.jpg (37819 bytes) Excellent sweetheart bracelet is made by Speidel Co. of Providence, RI, founded in 1904. This bracelet, circa 1940 was part of their "Phoenix" line. Heavy gold plate, with the only wear to the back edge of the heart, this bracelet is in wonderful condition and should fit a 5 inch to 7 inch wrist with ease and comfort. The heart has a charming design with etched flowers and the initial, "G." Another view here. Signed and marked. Order "SW-042Phoenix," SOLD.
024bojar46.jpg (30168 bytes) We don't think this signed Bojar bracelet  was ever worn. Pristine! Ready to engrave, front or back, this heart bracelet is stamped "Boja, October 1946" on the inside band. Nice gift for the October birthday gal with a small wrist that measures 5.5 to 6.75. Will stretch too fit most but we suggest sizes for maximum comfort. Another view here. This bracelet is a bright, true yellow gold color, obviously gold filled. Order "SW.VAL-024," SOLD.

716carmlokbox.jpg (50663 bytes)
Carmen locket sweetheart bracelet by the D.F. Biggs Company is being sold with the display box from the estate. We think the box is newer than the bracelet but are selling as found. View with locket open. Alternating fancy engraved links with smooth links, this bracelet will hold two photos that are each 3/4 inch in diameter. View from the side. Centerpiece is just under one inch wide. We believe the initials are FCE, (E for the last name) but you decide. Sometimes these fancy letters are hard to decipher. View four. Excellent condition and best for a small to medium wrist (5 to 6.5 inches). Another view. Comes with box as shown (no lid) or we will be happy to gift box instead. Order "SWLKV-716carmlok," SOLD .More lockets here.

700wrist.jpg (27162 bytes)

Sometimes sold in sets, expansion bracelets like this one were favored by women who did not want the centerpiece. Nowadays, they make a great bracelet as shown or can be used by your jeweler to repair or replace a stretched out band on another bracelet. This one will fit a 4 to 7 inch wrist comfortably as shown! Hard to date as this style started being advertised in 1902. This gold filled band bracelet is signed by American Queen and has an additional mark we cannot make out. There is light wear commensurate with age but it is not noticeable without magnification. Order "SW-700wrist " SOLD.

076costar2tone2.jpg (33375 bytes)

Hard to find sterling and gold alternating links bracelet by Co-Star has a large emerald rhinestone in the center of the design. Another view here. Smooth sterling and patterned gold filled vermeil links alternate on the band. The centerpiece is over one inch in diameter and is encircled with a gold filled ring on which sits a sterling eight-petaled floral design with the emerald green center stone. View from the top. Bracelet is marked" Co-Star, Sterling base." Should comfortably fit a 5.25 to 7 inch wrist. Hard to find these mixed metal color beauties! Order "SW9-076CoStar2tone," SOLD.
676phoe4344.jpg (27719 bytes) Very romantic styling on this perfectly wonderful gold filled Phoenix bracelet has twin hearts with the initials D and C engraved on the top and '43 on the back of the heart. Perfect for David and Cathy or Dakota and Caitlin. Lots of names with these initials! Interesting side note: the bracelet is maker marked on three links and one is the date 1944 but it was engraved with 1943's date on the back of the heart.  Perhaps, the soldier had to go overseas and had someone buy the bracelet for his sweetheart after he had reported for duty. Please note how pretty the heart is on this piece. Best for a 5.75 to 6.75 inch wrist. Order "SW-676ph4344 " SOLD.
160crescent.jpg (30154 bytes) A flower and a crescent heart bracelet that is in unworn condition probably dates to circa 1950 due to the gold top and stainless backed links. Easy to read the 12 gold fill mark but the maker's mark is hard to decipher, perhaps "C&B." Traditionally, the crescent was a symbol for the honeymoon so these bracelets were often given as engagement or wedding gifts. Another view of the satin and smooth top and alternating smooth and swirled links. This one will best fit a 5 to 6.5 inch wrist. Order "SW-#160crescent," SOLD.
161bam.jpg (40635 bytes) Engraved with a letter "B" in old English, this American Queen bracelet is gold filled on sterling and dates to the mid-forties, WW2 era. The shield design by Pitman and Keeler was a popular wartime design for sweetheart bracelets. Bracelet band is a half inch wide and would be best for a 5 to 6.5 inch wrist but very comfortable on most sizes. Order "SW-#161bam," SOLD.

102dollymadisonx.jpg (15580 bytes)

Sturdy, with a wide bracelet and substantial heart center, this Dolly Madison bracelet probably dates to the late 40's or early 1950's. Dolly Madison was a mark from the fine old Marathon Company of Attleboro, Mass. This beauty has that beautiful vintage deep gold filled color of days past and is accented with both rose gold and yellow gold. The center of the heart is engraved with an old English letter "B" but it is rather hard to see in the photos although, quite distinctive in person without the glare of our lighting. View the initial better and note the rose gold accents. Alternating smooth and Nouveau swirled designs on the links. View the back. Best for a 5 to 6.5 inch wrist but will flex a bit larger. Order "SW-102Dolly Madison, " SOLD.

Please note that most sweetheart bracelets range in age from the turn of the century through the 50's with increased popularity during war times. Wrists were smaller then and most of these bracelets, while they will expand quite large, look best on a small to medium wrist. Please email if you would like exact closed and fully extended measurements and I will be happy to advise. Many of these bracelets are from my private collection and they are all wonderful mementos of a more romantic time.
