This is my favorite bracelet. The rhinestones are not yellowed, it's a reflection from the scanner. In the larger view I have tried to show how it fits on the wrist. It is far more beautiful than my scan makes it look. It's dynamite. I would say early 1950's. Signed BOUCHER and numbered 3352. It is 7/8" wide.

This gorgeous gold-tone bracelet is made up of two different types of segments; one has 13 open-worked twisted ropes studded with gold-tone disks running horizontally, the other has 8 twisted ropes running vertically and emphasized by bands of solid gold-tone. It looks incredibly like real gold and is a stunner. I would say mid 1950's. Signed © BOUCHER and numbered 6751. It is 1-1/8" wide.

This silly little guy is just adorable. Great workmanship in the heavy granulation of the crab's body. He is lying atop a piece of genuine agate. Signed © BOUCHER and numbered 9005P, dating the piece to 1964/1965 when this type of casting was very popular.

This beautiful etched florentine gold-tone pin and earrings with faux turquoise and pave set round rhinestones. I would say mid to late 1950's. Signed © BOUCHER and numbered 7726P.
