Bracelets c. 1936

"Bracelets" is a c. 1936 watercolor design by William P. Shearwood, a prominent American jewelry designer. It features three different bracelet designs, all rendered in meticulous detail. The top bracelet is a wide, black band with a decorative gold buckle. The middle bracelet is more elaborate, with intricate gold detailing and a black band featuring a delicate white stripe. The bottom bracelet is a simple, circular gold band with a dangling chain. These designs demonstrate Shearwood's skill in combining classic forms with modern aesthetics, creating jewelry that is both timeless and elegant.
