Our favorite English sterling silver bangles are those with corset, button or lace cuff, and buckle themes. This antique English sterling silver bangle is in the form of a buttoned-cuff. It has a push-in tongue and groove closure (which fits securely).

Pairing a heavy silver linked Albert watch chain or collar necklace with a silver buckle or buttoned cuff can transform jeans/tee or add a bit of edge to a black cocktail dress.

It is in good antique condition.
