Condition Report
Overall good to fair condition with wear and light to moderate surface scratches in keeping with the age of the piece. The ends of the two half bangles show some drying out of the shell. The knot to the elastic can be seen to the inside of the bangle. There is a small chip to one inside edge of the bangle and there is a small purposeful hole drilled to the centre edge of one of the halves of the bangle, something may have originally hung from here? One of the silver inlaid flowers is missing and the silver centre to another is missing also.
