Pre-loved vintage 9k yellow gold Engine-Turned Bangle
There's a lovely tactile quality to engine-turned gold, and this bangle is a good example of the technique done well. A continuous crosshatch pattern runs the full circumference of the band, catching light from every angle and giving the piece real texture and depth against the skin, rather than the flat shine of a plain polished bangle. The hinged construction makes it easy to put on and take off, sitting neatly and securely on the wrist without the fuss of a clasp to fasten. It's a genuinely versatile piece, simple enough to wear every day, but with enough detail and character to hold its own without a stone or embellishment doing the work. This is a pre-loved piece, previously worn and coming to us in good condition, with the engine-turned detailing still crisp and well-defined throughout. It would suit anyone who appreciates texture and craftsmanship in gold jewellery, whether worn alone or stacked with other pieces for a more layered look. Yes, this is real gold hallmarked 9ct gold, fully authenticated by our in-house team before it ever reaches the (virtual) shelf. If you're local to Harrogate, Leeds, or York, we'd love for you to come and see this piece in person at our showroom on Cambridge Street, the texture and warmth of the gold really come through in natural light.
