A bracelet made up of small round Satsuma pieces set in a white metal. The back of every piece is marked with an X and it has a box clasp and safety chain. The Satsuma category discusses what Satsuma pottery is - see this for more info. Every link has a tiny painting in multi-colors and gold featuring chrysanthemums, bamboo, wisteria, and small birds. The paintings are in good condition - the glaze has some crackling and the gold leaf trim on the edges of the pieces is worn. The metal backing shows tarnish from wear. The bracelet measures 19 cm long and each link is 1.7 cm in diameter. A graceful feminine piece of jewelry!
