The background...

This elegant bracelet features a repurposed filigree silver necklace link set with a carved shell cameo. The centre medallion in the original necklace is marked “800” indicating that it is made from European silver. Based on the intricate filigree design I suspect that it was a souvenir necklace purchased in Italy, long renowned for cameo carving. I’ve matched it with facetted semi-precious Carnelian rondelles.

Carnelian is associated with the energies of fire and is said to represent transformation.
