DescriptionPair of bracelets with green enamel background and decorated with diamonds and pink enamel flowers. The bracelets have a pair of elephant heads as the main motif. The heads are facing each other with trunks entwined. The two heads swing aside when released by a screw so bracelets can be put on the arm. Bracelets are contained in a maroon velvet case fitted to hold them.
