Vintage Sterling Silver Weather Report Charm Bracelet Chim James Avery Beau

Vintage Sterling Weather Report Charm Bracelet Chim James Avery Beau. This is a vintage sterling silver charm bracelet with a’weather’ theme. Underlying the weather theme is optimism and perseverance through’bad weather’ that life throws us at times. Central to the theme (and bracelet) is the large charm which reads May all your days be sunny. The bracelet includes an interesting mix of American, English, and German charms attached to an English charm bracelet. It measures a little over 8 in length and bears full hallmarks for Chester, 1979. All of the charms are made of. 925 sterling silver except the German charms, which are. The largest charm (Beau sundial) measures 7/8.

Ever wonder what the depiction of a frog on a ladder represents? I discovered this little tidbit excerpted from a July 13, 1880 article in the New York Times: At Schwetzingen, says Mr. Loudon in his magazine, in the post-house, we witnessed for the first time what we have since seen frequently, an amusing application of zoological knowledge for the purpose of prognosticating the weather. Two frogs, of the species called Kanna arborea, are kept in a crystal jar, about 18 inches high and 16 inches in diameter, with a depth of 3 or 4 inches of water at the bottom, and a small ladder reaching to the top of the jar. On the approach of dry weather the frogs mount the ladder, but when moisture is expected, they descend into the water. Payments are due within 5 days. International buyers are welcome!
