Vintage Northwest Coast Style Sterling Silver Bracelet Fragment Repoussé Form

This object is a fragment of a vintage silver bracelet or cuff, executed in the Northwest Coast visual tradition, recognizable by its flowing formline composition, ovoids, and U-forms. The design language aligns with styles associated with the Pacific Northwest Indigenous art canon, including Haida-, Tlingit-, and Kwakwaka’wakw-inspired motifs, though no tribal attribution is asserted due to the absence of a maker’s mark. The piece appears to have been originally formed using repoussé and chased techniques, with engraved texturing used to articulate interior formline elements. The silver exhibits natural age patina and wear consistent with mid-20th-century production. A small drilled opening is present, likely related to a former rivet, hinge, or historical repair. While incomplete, this fragment retains strong sculptural integrity and graphic clarity, making it suitable for scholarly reference, conservation repair, or adaptive reuse in fine jewelry or mixed-media assemblage.
