Victorian Era "ROMA" Silver Bangle

Italy, circa 1880. 

Wide sterling silver Grand Tour bangle. A souvenier brought home from a trip to Rome.  "ROMA" and scrolling details in rose gold overlay. A bangle like this would have been the daytime jewel of choice for a well-appointed English woman of the 1870s and 80's. 

A Grand Tour provided an opportunity to discover the cultural wonders of Europe and beyond. Popular throughout the 18th and 19th centuries, this extended journey was seen as a rite of passage for young English aristocrats.

The bracelet measures approximately 6.75 inches in inner circumference and .75 inches wide.
