I won this costume jewelery bangle on the ShopLC auction today for $2.00. To me it has a Deco feel, yet I can't remember ever seeing a bangle designed like this. Made of stainless steel with natural tiger's eye stones.

Looks like burlesque performers to me...

@Desertdi   Yes, I can see a Ziegfield Follies influence.

Very unique!  How are you going to style it?  Alone or with others bracelets you have?  I think it has a cool vibe to it!  Enjoy and wear in good health!

@PickyPicky3  Years ago I use to love those auctions, thanks for reminding me about them 😃

Ive won some really nice pieces there for cheap prices! Consequently, I'd much rather have a bangle done like yours in stainless steel & gemstones than one made from silver tone.  I have some stainless pieces and they hold up nicely.

The design looks Egyptian to me. Reminds me of the winged scarab.

   Not so Art Deco looking to me. Maybe Arts & Crafts era  with tigers eye  and Phoenix bird design

@PickyPicky3   I won a fire opal tennis bracelet in sterling silver for $33 once.  It's stunning!  The auctions that run at odd times normally have the lowest bids.
