Product Details

This particular piece is a highly collectible mid-century design by Barclay (often stamped simply as Barclay or Barclay 1/20 12K Gold Filled). While it features the hallmark Barclay name, it is worth clarifying a quick historical detail regarding the maker: The Story Behind the PieceThe True Maker: The bracelet is an authentic 1940s Retro-era piece created by Barclay Jewelry Inc. This prominent American mid-century costume jewelry firm operated primarily out of Providence, Rhode Island, and was celebrated for its high-quality 12k gold-filled statement floral styles paired with vibrant glass rhinestones.The "Goldfield" Distinction: The term "Goldfield" here actually refers to its 12K Gold-Filled (GF) composition. In vintage catalogs and descriptions, a mark like 1/20 12K GF indicates that a thick mechanical layer of 12-karat gold has been bonded over a structural base metal.
