This bracelet is formed from asymmetrical interlocking hinged links decorated with peacock-colored glass frit "cookies" (raised cabochon domes). It closes with a thumb-ring clasp attached to the bracelet with a set of rectangular copper chain links. Two of the bracelet links [b and c] were removed by the donor after she purchased it so that it would fit her wrist. The bracelet is unsigned.
