Hattie Carnegiw ram bracelet

#2838          $800  Sold

Hattie Carnegie ram's head bracelet and earrings, mid 20th century

It is a special treat to find an intact bracelet and earrings set of Hattie Carnegie's famous ram's head design. All too often the pieces have become separated. The ram's head design, borrowed from ancient Middle Eastern jewelry, is delightfully outrageous in this colorful plastic incarnation.

The gold plated base metal of the bracelet is coated with slightly iridescent green enamel. The plastic faux jade ram's head is set with sparkling rhinestone eyes. His horns are navy blue. The construction is the same on the earrings, minus the enamel.

The bracelet is a hinged bangle; the earrings are clip-on style. All three pieces are marked "Hattie © Carnegie".

The condition is excellent. The pieces look like they were never worn.

The inner circumference of the bracelet is 6 3/4". The ram's head is 1 1/2" by 2". Each earring is 1" by 1".
