During the Victorian era, these deep-red pyrope garnets were prized for their saturated, wine-like hue and were frequently exported across the continent. This piece uses the traditional \"tombak\" setting—a specialized copper-zinc alloy designed to mimic the appearance of gold—finished with a delicate gold wash to enhance the brilliance of the stones.  \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe bangle has a continuous row of round cabochon-cut garnets, each individually secured within the metal channel. These smooth, domed \"carbuncle\" stones offer a soft, glowing luster that differs from the more common rose-cut facets found in similar jewelry of the period.  \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSpecs\u003cbr\u003e• Year Made: 1890\u003cbr\u003e• Materials: Bohemian pyrope garnets, gold-washed tombak\u003cbr\u003e• Dimensions: 2.6 in x 2.6 in x 0.15 in\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCondition\u003cbr\u003eThe bangle is in excellent antique condition with all garnets present and securely set.
