Victorians had a fascination with nature’s variety, and this bracelet captures that impulse. Each panel of this bracelet is set with a polished slab of agate or jasper and each stone is unique. These were known as specimen stones, chosen not for uniformity but for their unique patterns and palette. Set in 10k gold with a concealed clasp, this piece reflects a 19th-century love of collecting, classifying, and celebrating natural wonders.
