1960's Ed Levin Modernist Crenate Sterling Silver Bangle Bracelet Designer Signed 17g Handmade shops Studio Jewelry
This is such a gorgeous bangle made by Ed Levin in the 1960's, signed "LEVIN" and "STER". This bracelet is in beautiful condition, it has been well cared for by the previous owner. It is a sterling silver piece that has a crenate (scalloped) surface that is hammered flat and this makes the bracelet direct light beautifully. As you see in my shops photos with the sheet music you could read the notes off the bracelet because of the reflective quality created by this design. This bracelet is 7.5 inches around the inside, but remember the bangle must go over the hand. If you need help measuring for a bangle these are great instructions, just copy and paste the following address >>> https://www.wikihow.com/Measure-Wrist-Size <<<
Even though it is a bangle this is no flimsy bracelet, it is as sturdy as the day it was made (Levin quality!) and weighs 17g.
It is important for me to let my customers know the jewelry comes from a non smoking home. The best part is you can put my jewelry right on, or give it as a gift, (unlike many vintage pieces) because....... Pieces are cleaned and polished by me in a solution of warm water and soap, and if need be I brush it with a soft toothbrush and polish it until my arm hurts! I know some people like patina and in most cases true patina stays on the piece but the jewelry is clean, free of dirt and oils that build up from wear. Finally the piece is wrapped in a new white tissue paper. (The rest of my packaging supplies may be recycled) I love to answer your questions, I am happy to take and post additional photos at your request, I check for sales or messages throughout the day. Thank You for looking,please check out my other Ed Levin pieces and other jewelry in my collection. I hope we can do business together! Sincerely,MaryEllen. Ed Levin is the father of Mid-Century modern jewelry design, an artist in many mediums, he began his jewelry company in 1950 in New York. Today the company is still family owned though Levin passed away in 2008. He is known for his sterling silver jewelry in designs that are fluid and modernist style.
