This sculptural 18K yellow gold serpent bracelet coils gracefully around the wrist, culminating in a finely chased head set with sparkling white diamond eyes and crowned by a 1.00-carat emerald. The serpent motif, an enduring symbol of eternity and protection, reached the height of its popularity in fine jewelry following Queen Victoria's 1839 betrothal ring from Prince Albert, and examples remain highly sought after today.
