Highest quality
Welcome to my jewelry box. In addition to leather, I have a fondness for fine yet wearable solid gold and silver jewelry. In particular I love fine mid-century pieces from Sweden, Finland, Denmark, and Italy. I import the best pieces from Europe to wear and share.

Gold link jewelry is gold textile as jewelry - well that's how I think about my particular fascination with gold link. Obviously I'm a textile lover as I've devoted my design business to bending, sewing and musing over leather textiles. Solid gold forged into slinky chains is another chapter in my oohing and aahing over beautiful pliable yet strong constructions.

1963 x-link 18k solid gold textile bracelet - Swedish vintage handmade
X link is the first gold link style that lit me up for gold textiles. The movement of the x-link style is silky and flexible and oh so unique!! I can't get enough of this style!!
Swedish vintage bracelet made in Sweden in 1963. 18k gorgeous gold, 7.25 inch length and 8mm width, a nice 10.5 grams, perfect working hidden box clasp. This piece has hallmarks for maker year and gold purity. She is in excellent vintage condition.
The link type is called x-link; the individually made links create little x’s where they are soldered together. Imagine the painstaking work that went into each and every solder.
Dark areas just are reflections from the room.
Two bracelets are shown. This listing is for the more narrow x-link bracelet. The wider piece can be seen here.

Customer Reviews
I bought a really unique piece (the thicker “honey comb” faucet necklace in the photo) from this site and I always get compliments when I wear it.
I hadnt bought expensive jewelry from an Insta account before and so I was a little hesitant. It arrived fast and was as high quality as described. I would deff buy another piece again from her. Shes been fast to respond when Ive had questions on other items and I enjoy following her posts - I appreciate her love of textiles and textures that match my own ❤️
All I can say is FABULOUS
It’s incredibly unique link, necklace is in immaculate condition, absolute perfection! Thank you
This was an awesome purchase - great price for a unique, heavy duty vintage piece. Love that I can wear it as a chain or on my wallet. Will be keeping my eye on this shop as Jill's sourcing is unmatched.
I can’t say enough good things about this store and the exceptional customer service AND the quality of the piece. The locket is a dream come true, and I will definitely be back!
Interior key ring
Each Wedge Bag is made with an interior key ring that is perfect to clip your keys so that you never lose them again.
Also works great with one of my leather leashes to connect a zipper pouch or anything else you like to keep at hand.
