Vintage Antique Persian Miniature Painting Mother of Pearl Silver Bracelet

Vintage Antique Persian Miniature Painting Mother of Pearl Bracelet

Exquisite vintage Persian “story bracelet” featuring hand-painted miniature scenes on rectangular genuine mother of pearl panels. The intricate artwork depicts traditional Persian figures in everyday life – people conversing, on horseback, under tents, and in pastoral settings – with vibrant colors and fine details that have survived beautifully.

•  Length: 7.5 inches (fixed, non-adjustable – fits medium wrist)

•  Weight: 44.0 grams (substantial and well-made)

•  Construction: Panels of natural mother of pearl set in silver frames with hinged links for flexibility; secure clasp

•  Condition: Very good vintage condition – paintings are remarkably well-preserved with bright colors and minimal fading; only light surface scratches on some panels. The silver shows characteristic natural tarnish/dark patina (typical for aged silver, adds authentic antique charm; can be polished if desired)

•  Hallmark/Mark: Visible maker’s mark/stamp present (as shown in photos – appears to be a Persian or regional artisan mark); no standard purity hallmark (common for many vintage Persian/Indian pieces from early-mid 20th century). Reliable sources (antique jewelry references and similar sold items) confirm these are typically mounted in silver (often low-grade to mid-grade, around 800–925 purity), consistent with the tarnish behavior and weight.

This is a classic collectible “Persian story teller” or “picture panel” bracelet, handcrafted with folk art charm – likely from Iran or Indo-Persian regions, circa mid-20th century or earlier. Perfect for collectors of ethnic jewelry, miniature art, or unique vintage pieces!
