This year I'm building a sterling California charm bracelet, and thought I might have some charms in my stash .....but, no instead found this (and a few more). I have a shoebox of "not sterling charm bracelets". They are wrapped loosely in paper towls, some I've posted before. Don't remember where I found this. Very nice 6.5" long heavy gold-tone (pot-metal) bracelet. Look at the 3-d seals! For scale the pagoda is 1.25"x.75". Golden gate bridge, pagoda, 3 seals on rock, cable car, Coit tower and fishing boat. At first I thought it was missing some charms, but identical listed on ebay right now. Very fun souvenir, sadly not marked. Hope you enjoy., thanks for stopping by!

I thought most were marked. Mine were, but yours are so beautiful !~
Love it. I have some charms for you love! I won't be using them. Whenever I put charms on bracelets, I always seem to loose them. You would think I'd practice, at the very least, some soldering skills! Had I done that much earlier when my eyesight was good, it probably would be second nature to me. I'd rather give them to you!
Nice and unique! I own one made from money?? It is Intresting..Ill post sometime. A great day to you!!

Fantastic SF charm bracelet Mary, there are such wonderful landmarks here, I have only been there to change planes once but have loved the city in media, cable car reminds me of I Remember Mama, pagoda of Flower Drum Song, and the bridge from countless films and TV shows like Streets of SF - it's a beautiful city and a gorgeous tribute bracelet, kudos on a delightful find
Phil - mine aren't marked because they are base metal? This one is nice and heavy. I love it. Thanks :-)
Share - I don't solder either, I used split rings on the US states bracelets. XOXO
Thomas - Is your bracelet with coins? I have a few of those and they are pretty neat. I think I posted one. I also have a cage charm for a dollar bill...thanks for reminding me LOL.
Jenni - SF is a very beautiful place to visit. I always feel a bit old-fashioned and remind myself to bring all my bling and wear it! - XOXO Mary
Thanks friends for loves: Dear Manikin and Kevin for first fast loves, Fort, Mike, Hel1, Broochman, Kyra and aura!
Great tribute to San Francisco....
Have friends there, and visited a few times.
Never want to live there....
Or L?A. I'm on the Central Coast of California, and plan in staying here :)
I adore the little "Monterey" fishing boat...
Was my Brother's first boat!
Eileen - I love visiting SF but I only go every 2-3 years. It changes every visit! I have to say I love Chinatown the most, food, souvenirs, great museum! Honestly, I can hardly stand my end of CA anymore. It is getting so expensive and the middle-class is pushed out of beach communities, or just reasonable rent. I've been here since 1987, but it is definitely a fight between the Haves and Haves-Less. LOL The only ones in the "haves-less" category who survive are those that inherited property. Crazy.
Sorry! thanks for loving my bracelet Eileen LOL, - Mary
