Title: H.Stern Topaz Bracelet
Post by: msmollyann on September 27, 2011, 06:43:28 PM

This was my Great Grandma's - I'm not sure how 'antique' it would be considered, but I've not been able to find any info online.  It came in an H.Stern box, which I believe is the original.
There are 6 stones which I'm told are topaz.  They're about .5" by .25" rectangular.  The rest is rose gold.  There are some intricate cut outs in the stone settings.
It's in good condition, save for a small missing piece for the clasp.
Any thoughts?  :)

Here is a bit of information about Hans Stern:

I think the stones might be citrine. Don't take my word for it though.

I haven't been able to find your identical piece. Still trying. It sure is beautiful!

Hey, this is great!  Citrine definitely makes sense.  My Grandma told me it was topaz - there's a topaz of that color called 'Imperial Topaz', but either fit.  I suppose a jeweler could really tell me.
