Text by Michael Backman: “This magnificent Indian bracelet is fashioned from thick, solid gold sheet, and set with 66 large cabochon rubies. “The bracelet is at its thickest directly opposite the central boss which is set with a central ruby surrounded by an outer ring of rubies. The outer side of the hoop of the bracelet has a central, raised strip running around it which is set with a row of rubies. The widest part of the bracelet hoop similarly has a vertical band that is set with further rubies. These bands are further decorated with applied pearled gold strips.”
