About this piece
An expandable design solves a genuine problem in children's jewellery — a growing wrist quickly outpacing whatever's fitted to it — handled here with two working buckles rather than one, styled to mimic a miniature belt closure. It's a properly clever bit of engineering for something this small, built to be adjusted over time rather than simply outgrown and set aside.
Engine-turned patterning covers the surface, the fine repeating linework typical of Art Deco silverwork through the period, and the piece is marked by Henry Griffith & Sons of Sheffield, a firm with a solid manufacturing pedigree in English silver. An inscription inside dates it firmly to 1937, so unlike a lot of period jewellery, there's no need to lean on stylistic guesswork here at all.
Condition notes
Good vintage condition. A bit uneven in shape.
