Japanese Damascene Shakudo 24K Inlay Bracelet
Discover the timeless artistry of traditional Japanese metalwork with this exquisite Damascene Shakudo bracelet featuring 24K gold inlay. Measuring 7 inches in length, this piece showcases the centuries-old technique of shakudo—a copper-gold alloy prized for its distinctive dark patina and ability to beautifully contrast with precious metal inlays.
Craftsmanship & Design
The intricate 24-karat gold inlay work demonstrates the meticulous skill of Japanese artisans, creating elegant patterns that catch the light and draw the eye. Each detail reflects the heritage of Damascene metalworking, where precious metals are carefully embedded into darker base metals to create stunning visual contrast.

This vintage bracelet is in good overall condition with authentic patina that speaks to its age and history. Please note there are some tarnish spots visible on the back side—a natural characteristic of vintage shakudo pieces that can be appreciated as part of the bracelet's story or gently cleaned if desired.
