Mid 20th Century Yemeni filigree bracelet known as the coffee bean bracelet. Made of cast mixed metal, the bracelet has domed protrusions that some say are stylized breasts and therefore linked to fertility. Others think that the bracelet may have a defensive nature. Whatever the case may be, the bracelet is lovely. The original pin which closed this hinged bracelet had been lost and replaced by a pin that is somewhat loose but works. It is in good vintage condition.
