While the bracelet itself is in vermeil, the cameo mounts are in gilded metal, adorned with a double frieze of florets and flower buds. The two older medallions date from the first half of the 19th century, and were mounted during the 19th century on a vermeil cuff bracelet. It is fitted with a safety chain. A small flower is missing from the edge of one of the cameos.
