A poignant and rare piece of WWII-era Jewish history. This hand-fashioned bracelet, dated by family provenance to 1941, features a central Star of David (Magen David) enclosed within a circle, flanked by hand-cut scrollwork resembling organic leaf or vine patterns.

The piece is crafted from a thin gauge of copper or bronze. The construction shows signs of authentic hand-tooling; the cutouts are slightly asymmetrical, which is a hallmark of "Ghetto silver" or camp-made trench art where artisans worked with limited tools. The metal has developed a deep, authentic verdigris patina over the decades, which we have left undisturbed to preserve its historical integrity.
