Crafted around 1860, this gold “book” unfolds into a bracelet. Each floral-adorned panel set with emeralds, diamonds, and rubies, spelling out 'souvenir' (French for 'memory'). #globalmuseum #GoldJewellery #jewellery #1860s
It's absolutely gorgeous and clever, but I find it odd that the gemstone colors aren't in the colors of the flag of France. They look more like the colors of the flag of Mexico!
