In heraldry, grapes are a symbol of good luck.  Margot's luxe bracelet intensifies the grapes' property of attractive abundance through her lavish use of rich yellow enamel layered on gold leaf.  The ripe bursting golden bunches shimmer delectably against enfolding pale green and silver leaves, a mesmerizing combination of form and color that will hold the eye in fascination.  A collector's dream in near-mint condition, it is a show-stopper to wear!
