Aquamarine and diamond bracelet, Cartier, circa 1940

Set with 16 square-cut aquamarines, accented by 38 round diamonds weighing approximately 6.10 carats, mounted in palladium and gold, length 7¼ inches, signed Cartier, numbered FALL44-58710.

Good condition with gentle wear to the mounting; well-made and supple. The aquamarines are a slightly steely medium-light blue, eye-clean and well-matched. The diamonds are approximately G-H color, VS clarity. Signed and numbered on the safety clasp; additionally inscribed FALL 44, perhaps a commemorative date for the purchaser, or possibly PALL, to indicate the use of palladium.
