Latest Vintage Piece
Zancan 18kt. white gold sapphire bracelet 2.50ct. tw. 21.2 grams $3,150.00 CAD. 241-00067
You don’t see high quality sapphires very often and when you do they are almost always set with diamonds to highlight the contrast. This bracelet forgoes the diamonds in favor of 3 edges of bead set natural brilliant cut royal blue sapphires. The high quality cobalt blue stones are faceted in a similar pattern to a full cut diamond, so they display brilliance unlike most.
This bracelet was crafted from premium quality, solid 18 karat white gold and a good amount of it. The bracelet weighs a substantial 21.2 grams and measures 18.3cm (7 1/4 inches), so it should fit most women’s wrists. The plunger style clasp is both easy to close by yourself and secure. It was manufactured by Zancan Jewellery from Italy.
We are not familiar with this brand. They are still in operation and offer elaborate jewellery creations in sterling silver to high end 18 karat gold like our estate bracelet. The cost to reproduce something like this with todays gold price would be in the $5,000.00 neighborhood. The 36 natural sapphires are estimated to weigh a combined 1.50 carats.
The bracelet shows very little wear. The rhodium plating over the white gold has worn off over much of the white gold revealing a slightly warmer hue. It would be a simple process to restore the chromy white look with a fresh plating of rhodium. This high end luxury Italian bracelet is estate priced at $3,150.00 CAD. Stock #241-00067.
