This bracelet makes a very nice display on the wrist with pretty spring colors of green and pale yellow. The simple cushion-cut peridots and citrines in open settings, the little silver flower clusters, and the bright gold electroplate are all quite sparkly.

The construction is solid and the length is a very generous seven inches. It has a good weight but is comfortable on the wrist. The clasp is a box and tongue with two hinged safety catches. The gold electroplate over the sterling silver is very even.

Now, this is not fine jewelry. On close examination, what appear to be little clusters of diamond melee are actually just sparkly bits of silver--although there is indeed a single tiny diamond hidden in the center of the cluster opposite the clasp that gave me a good chuckle when I finally spotted it. As expected, there are visible inclusions in the peridot and citrine and the cutting and polish aren't quite perfect.

Overall, though, this is an attractive bridge piece that certainly shows well, definitely several steps up from costume jewelry. It is has a contemporary look with the little flowers and the mixed metal and gemstone colors and works quite well with other pieces in gold or silver. It would make an appropriate and appreciated gift for a teenager with no need to fret about her losing an expensive gold bracelet--although it certainly has appeal for women of every age. There are matching pieces in the collection such as a pendant and ring.
