Two sample siam crystal bracelets (July birthstone)

Two rosary bracelets of siam (ruby-colored) crystal Ave beads demonstrate options available on bracelets.

The top bracelet has a lampwork Pater of ruby glass with applied floral decoration surrounded by Swarowski crystal pearls. The four-way cross medal is heavy silver plate (probably over bronze, given the color of the patina) and shows wear from years of devotional use, and the toggle is sterling in a rope pattern.

The bottom bracelet has a tensha bead Pater with a red and pink rose and soft green leaves, set off by siam seed beads. The four-way cross medal is silverplate over a base metal and is of a relatively more modern design that the one above. The heart toggle is sterling.

On both bracelets the medal is attached with a fully-wrapped link with a coordinating seed bead spacer instead of a jump ring, for stability.
