Whiting Davis .. A tribute to beautiful jewelry and accessories

Exotic Whiting and Davis Snake bracelet. VERY Egyptian revival

 The brand's iconic snake is estimated to have made its first appearance in the late 1890s - a delicate bracelet crafted in sterling silver. Throughout the years, Whiting & Davis continued to design the snake motif into their fine and fashion jewelry with earrings, bracelets and necklaces. One of Whiting & Davis' most rare designs is a circa 1910, double-headed snake bracelet that had been hand enameled by the skilled craftsmen at the company. 

Whiting  and Davis LARGE Baroque CUFF Bracelet

  In 1903 when Edward Davis patented new technology to improve the hinged bracelet, using two hinges on each side so a woman could open and close with ease. The bracelet featured seamless hinges and a spring, rather than a clasp which was popular at the time.

By 1896, Charles Whiting partnered with Edward Davis and the name Whiting & Davis was born. With the same drive that transformed metal mesh into fashion, Charles Whiting led the brand into the Twentieth Century - handbags introduced anywhere from 1896 to 1935 continue to be highly sought after styles today by collectors .

This wide 3 coil vintage snake bracelet is identical to the Whiting and Davis one so I would guess it was a piece they made and jobbed out to another company. It is a very good quality piece that has 3 very wide coils. The bracelet will fit most any wrist due to the flexible design . The smallest it is when not worn is 2 1/4" in diameter. Could be worn on the upper arm as well as the wrist. This looks as if it has never been worn and is in fabulous condition. The goddess in your will appreciate having this serpent protect her.
