Vintage Sterling Silver & Glass Estate Bangle Bracelet Sri Lanka | Kandy Antique Silver Hinged Cuff
This gorgeous Kandyan vintage sterling silver bangle was pulled from a dusty antique shop on the outskirts of Kandy — Sri Lanka’s ancient royal city — and it’s exactly the kind of estate jewelry find that makes the hunt worthwhile. The hinged cuff opens via a clever attached pin closure, with ornate barrel terminals decorated in a bold diamond checkerboard repoussé pattern, beaded borders, and delicate applied scroll filigree — a construction of genuine complexity and silversmithing skill.
Running along each side of the bangle are two elongated panels of smoky gray glass set flush into the silver channel, their cool translucency playing beautifully against the bright silver framework. Fine rope-twist borders trace the full circumference, with additional filigree scroll and heart motifs tucked between the glass panels and at the hinge points. The interior is smooth polished silver — comfortable and clean against the wrist.
Whether you’re a collector of South Asian silver, a lover of vintage estate jewelry, or just someone who appreciates something genuinely well-made and one-of-a-kind, this bracelet delivers on every level.
