Rather smallish, but heavy bracelet - a different shape from Peter's pair.

Dear Betty; Very nice. So the dealer was right then... Great to know. I understand that these bracelets are very rare... With kind regards. Peter

From the way this bracelet is engraved, it looks very similar in style to Peter's. Fairly simple design using one tool only in engraving, heavy silver. These must be quite old and rare to find. Very nice to have.

They are not easy to find, but one sees them now and then. I was recently offered this piece when looking at some Nubian bracelets. I think there is one Egyptian dealer who offers them now and then.
