    Amethyst, moonstone and pearls. Can you show the back? I'd have said a bit later than Victorian.

    I thought they was glass. But wondered about the moonstone

    Gorgeous bracelet, Rita.
    Agree, to me the stones look like glass too, which was often used.
    The purple ones look Bohemian to me, so the others could be too.

    It looks a bit like Jugendstil, German Art Nouveau, which can have these stronger, less flowery lines. Some Jugendstil almost looks like Art Deco.
    Whatever its age, it is a beauty.

    Yes, it really is. Very unusual too.

    Agree, the stones are glass. Wouldn't be surprised if the clear ones are UV reactive (glow green in uv light). @Any Jewelry does the spring ring clasp on the safety chain look like an inter-war one, or do you think it's earlier?

    Difficult to see what it looks like, but it could be an older one.

    Great piece, but is it missing the box (female) side of the main clasp? I only see the tongue (male) part.

    That is what I thought too, at first. Now I wonder if it is a fold over clasp?
