1950s 18K gold bracelet with FOB signature

Magnificent 1950s-style bracelet in 18-karat yellow gold, featuring pivoted links that harmoniously alternate between polished surfaces and engraved details. The main links, with their sinuous and soft contours, create an elegant visual effect, while the engraved elements, featuring a refined grid pattern, add texture and depth.

The hollow-tube construction ensures lightness and comfort without sacrificing a precious look. The flexible design fits perfectly on the wrist, creating a simple yet refined look. The clasp with safety hook and chain reflects the attention to detail typical of Italian craftsmanship of the time.

*Signature*

The initials “FOB” stamped on the bracelet refer to Fabbrica Oreficeria Biffi , an Italian goldsmith company active in Vicenza between 1944 and 1968. The “3 VI” mark on the piece indicates that Fabbrica Oreficeria Biffi was registered as the third goldsmith company in the province of Vicenza, with the original registration number “3 VI - 23-5-1935”. This mark attests to the origin and authenticity of the bracelet, placing it in a significant historical period for Italian goldsmithing. The presence of the “FOB” mark adds value to the piece, making it a piece of interest for collectors and enthusiasts of vintage jewelry.
