Literature
Between 1785 and 1935, world gold coin jewelry, particularly 14K bracelets, evolved from early 19th-century neoclassical, coin-set pieces into popular 20th-century Art Deco accessories. These bracelets, often made from gold coins (like U.S. Eagles or European currency) and framed in 14K gold—standardized after 1906—served as expressions of wealth and heritage, transitioning from bespoke artisan work to more accessible, fashionable items by the 1920s. Fox designed this bracelet in 1998.
