Rich gold bands with unusual and highly attractive technique for holding the gemstones and pearls. Rubies alternate with pearls. We know that the rubies are old,

Burmese. We believe the pearls are cultured. The inner surface of the bangles are lined with a form of lacquer, typical of Indian jewellery (it helps support the

gold). Bangles are hinged and have convenient, secure clasps.
