This vintage 1961 sterling silver hinged bangle presents as a hollow oval bamboo stem with exceptional craftsmanship. The Birmingham assay marks (anchor) and "LH" maker's stamp authenticate its heritage, while the original safety chain remains intact as a most practical feature.
 
Design details:
Cockrell comb and box clasp which still operates smoothly
Elegant box hinge 
Highly detailed bamboo sections feature textured nodes and organic grooves
Hollow construction maintains surprising lightness despite substantial appearance
Safety chain demonstrates a thoughtful design addition
Internal measurements 6x5cm (7x6cm external) create a comfortably wearable piece
 
Presenting a timeless silhouette, this wearable piece of history balances vintage character with enduring elegance. The silver's warm glow and organic detailing make it equally suited to dashing daywear or evening refinement.
