Vintage Hong Kong Sterling Silver & Tiger’s Eye Bracelet

This bracelet features alternating oval tiger’s eye cabochons—known for their silky, golden-brown chatoyancy—and round sterling silver medallions with Chinese character cutouts. These characters typically symbolize prosperity, longevity, or happiness, depending on the specific symbols used. The piece is stamped “Hong Kong Sterling,” indicating it was crafted during the mid-20th century, when Hong Kong was a major center for fine silver jewelry production for export to Western markets.  Style Notes: • Era: Mid-century (1950s–1970s) • Material: Sterling silver and genuine tiger’s eye stones • Design: Alternating gemstone and Chinese character links • Clasp: Box or tab insert clasp (common for Hong Kong sterling bracelets) • Origin mark: “Hong Kong Sterling” (hand-stamped on reverse of one link)   Condition: excellent with natural patina that can be polished if desired ( I can prior to shipping if desired) but I like the aged look of the piece.
