  • Love these colours! Fantastic!

  • Hi, when I had these they always sold as the colors were so special. Hard to find ethnic stuff with so much color.

  • Also this kind of bracelets i know examples. I have one pair. I find them wonderful!
  • They are really great, that would be exactly my type of colours....!!! I understand very well that they sold quickly!

     

  • So Akkie,

    have you been told where these are made,, just curious.. do yours have Russian stamps on them too?  Where did you get yours?   Did you get it a while back?  They came on the market and then were gone again....

  • Linda, the bracelets have a Russian stamp and date from about 1900. They lay for a long time in the store, but my daughter do love them so much, that I ultimately bought them. I bought it there in the shop of a friend/dealer.
  • All woman love these ! yes I can see your daughter wanting a pair. They never laid too long here in states. Were with suppliers and then dealers like myself sold quickly.  I like the color of these even better than mine but I like the shape of the ones I kept better.  I think I had about four pairs in all.
