A beautiful example of traditional Indian tribal
craftsmanship, this substantial vintage Rajasthani snake chain bracelet
(often referred to as a Kada or belt-style cuff) makes a stunning
statement piece. Handcrafted in Northern India, the bracelet features multiple
fluid strands of intricately woven foxtail or snake links, brought together by
heavily detailed, structural end caps.
The terminal features an integrated traditional
pin-lock mechanism, making it
incredibly secure while maintaining its authentic, classic silhouette.
The inner cap is stamped with the clear hallmark "RA". Its vintage tribal heritage from Rajasthan, highly coveted by
collectors of ethnic and bohemian jewellery. At 21 cm in length, it
offers a comfortable, fluid drape on the wrist, perfect for unisex styling.
