Here's a metallic clamper bracelet--no signatures or hallmarks. Most of the ones I've found online like this are dated to the 1950s/1960s, but I'm not sure if that's correct. Thoughts?

that is fantastic, persephone60! (sorry, don't know your name)

this appears to be much older, imo...that style of repousse was particularly popular from 1890 to 1910, and hinged bracelets were worn at that time, too.

(reference: "Old Jewelry 1840-1950" by C. Jeanenne Bell)
 
Mary, cool! I found Victorian repousse bracelets, but most of the ones I saw (online) were cuffs rather than hinged bracelets, so I thought it was Victorian revival. I will do some more research and check out the book your recommended.
