Carrera y Carrera Solid 18K Yellow Gold 7" Lady Bug Bracelet in Carrera y Carrera Gift Box - This beautiful bracelet was finely crafted of solid 18k yellow gold, by the master artisans at renowned luxury jeweler Carrera y Carrera. The bracelet measures approx. 7" long, and has (5) sculpted Lady Bug links. The piece shows stunning attention to detail, as each of the lady bugs' back wings were sculpted to depict a man and woman face to face. The designer's use of both matte and polished finishes truly shows the spectacular craftsmanship that is synonymous with this fine luxury brand. This piece has a delightfully feminine allure, and a vibrant high karat yellow gold color that enhances its enchanting appearance. The bracelet is in excellent condition, and looks as though it has hardly been worn. The bracelet is signed with the Carrera y Carrera hallmark, gold purity, and unique serial number. This is a rare, retired piece which is no longer in production and extremely hard to find. Carrera y Carrera is an icon of gold craftsmanship and jewelry artisanship, and creates each piece in its workshops as if it were a small work of art. Each piece is meticulously crafted, in a series of labor intensive steps. The piece is first sketched by the designer, and is then sculpted by the hands of expert modelers, from a block of hard wax, and then the master prototype is created once it has reached the optimal design. The piece is then transformed into gold using the traditional lost wax casting method, and is then finished by master jewelers who painstakingly choose the gems and set them into the piece. The final touch, and Carrera y Carrera's trademark, is the matte-gloss finish, which allows a greater appreciation of the details of these small sculptures. Carrera y Carrera has a long history of celebrity clientele, including Jennifer Lopez, Madonna, Olivia Wilde, and many others. The bracelet will come housed in a Carrera y Carrera gift box.
