Intricate design features at center a Garuda bird, a mythical creature deeply rooted in Javanese and Balinese Hindu tradition that symbolizes knowledge, power, bravery, loyalty, and discipline. After Indonesia regained its independence from the Netherlands in the 1940s, the Garuda was adopted as the national symbol. Flanked on either side by other representations of protective and symbolic beings, this bracelet is not only a work of art, but also replete with deep historical and cultural symbolism for the people of Indonesia! Entirely hand made in elaborate hand repoussage design with fine hand tooled surface treatment and gold overlay in sections. No doubt a one of a kind creation that was likely originally a gift given on a special occasion like a wedding or graduation or an anniversary! Measures 2" wide at front, and presently fits up to a 6-5/8" wrist!
A superb vintage 1940s signed Spiro handmade sterling silver & gold overlay Indonesian Hindu Protective Deities design link bracelet.
