Antonio Pineda Circles Bracelet

Antonio Pineda, one of the most respected of Taxco's mid 20th century jewelry designers was well known for the architectural quality of many of his designs. The intertwined Circles bracelet epitomizes that quality of his work. Silver balls are mounted within hinged circles. The bracelet is 1 1/8 " tall and 3/16" thick. It weighs a hefty 131 grams. It has a push clasp and safety chain. When closed, the bracelet is 2 3/4" in diameter suitable for a medium/ large wrist. The safety chain makes it difficult to be precise in measuring the length. Books have been written about Antonio. His work is in the permanent collection of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art and was the subject of an exhibit at the Fowler Museum.
