About the Item

A Retro rose gold “mousetrap” link bracelet composed of oversized, interlocking tubular links, in 18k. Vallienne, Paris. The bracelet is built from a sequence of boldly scaled, rounded links, each formed as a hollow, high-polish tube that loops through the next in a continuous, rhythmic chain. The term “mousetrap” refers to the construction: each link appears to clasp or catch the adjacent one, creating a sense of tension and release within the structure, while remaining fluid on the wrist. The rose gold is characteristic of the Retro period, its warm, coppery tone enhancing the sculptural quality of the links. Surfaces are left smooth and highly polished, allowing light to travel uninterrupted across the curves, emphasizing volume rather than detail. The scale is deliberate—substantial but not rigid—so that the bracelet reads as both a statement piece and a study in form. Typical of 1940s French work, the design prioritizes bold geometry and mechanical clarity over ornament. Vallienne’s execution is precise, with each link carefully proportioned to maintain balance and flexibility, resulting in a bracelet that feels both industrial in concept and refined in finish. * Free shipping * Includes letter of authenticity for insurance purposes * Please do not hesitate to request a video or additional photos of specific details.
