Not sure of the age of these, but I'd be guessing 1950s: too frivolous for the austerity years of the 1940s, too old fashioned for the 1960s (and the identity would probably have been more deeply subsumed into BMC by that stage). However, as always, I stand ready to be corrected.
I've not seen another pair like this: most Austin-branded links seem to have the shield motif, or the entire name, rather than simply this flying A, which was, of course, used as a bonnet badge/latch for many years.
What was their purpose? Again, this is only a guess, but I would have thought that they might be used as a sales tool: either worn by the company's own salesmen, or possibly given as gifts to the dealer network.
Does anybody know a bit more, please?
Another new tryout with crochet, a wire cuff. Well, this is not so my style as I dont usually use so many color beads in one jewelry.Does it look complicated?
this one put up a good fight. even after the hand-cuffing. i think that woman is either giving out to him or offering help.
more then likely giving out to him knowing this city
this is an actual arrest, not a still from a set..
i'll scan these at a higher resolution when i have the time
another bit of bling which actually looks good in 'real life' crocheted and embellished with black hologrammed sequins

Gold and white come together to make a cute and stylish bracelet.
The cuff is malleable and can be adjusted to fit the wrist of a girl as well as a woman.
On the pictures the circumference is set to 18 cm / 7".
The term “Renaissance” means “rebirth” and it was an important time of social and cultural change. The Renaissance itself, between the early 17th to late 19th century, spread throughout Europe like wildfire. New continents were discovered and along with them came the expansion of trade, increase in wealth and access to beautiful and rare materials and gemstones.
It was the age of patronage of wealthy noblemen and powerful families to arts, music, philosophy, sciences, poetry and architecture.
To show off their wealth, items of jewellery were especially prized; ornate and highly decorated with the rarest of gemstones. Many pieces featured large stones, with other jewels set around them. Some of the wealthy even wore rings set with gems on all five fingers.
The Renaissance Cuff is emblematic of the jewels of the era. A central sparkling crystal is surrounded by a ring of smaller glittering firepolished beads. The bracelet strap features more gem-like stones and luscious pearls woven into a complex design.
The flexible Prismatic and Cubic right angle weave is the mainstay of the cuff. This fine example of jewels of the Renaissance wraps itself around your wrist bringing you back to the bygone era of power, intrigue, mystery and jewels.

Created for a Challenge with the theme "Chiyogami". Using the Chiyogami paper I made a resin bead with the paper set into it ..... and based the cuff design around the design in the paper.
Lots of seedies, Czech cup flowers and mini flowers, and Swaro pearls. Really like this and would love to try doing another one .... perhaps a collar next time.
“Shou”
The character that denotes longevity in Chinese.
It is about having good health and living a long life.
The Chinese longevity symbol is the most revered among the five good fortune symbols -
Good Luck, Prosperity, Longevity, Happiness, Wealth
The “Shou” character has been stylized by many. One of the most instantly recognizable image of this character is the round “Shou” with straight lines reflecting the strokes of the character. It is this version that the Cuff Of Longevity uses as a design element. To the Chinese, it is very auspicious to have this symbol on one self. To the non-Chinese, it is immediately recognizable as something intrinsically Oriental while being very attractive as a design element.
Weave yourself a beautiful and elegant cuff using this age old symbol of longevity. Wear it on your wrist to benefit from the fortune of longevity.

6 hole cuff bead featuring design inspired by van gogh's starry night painting. Visit my blog to learn more about my beads.
This shot was taken after the portrait was made.The question is, "Who's the criminal?" David Coverdale was a prince to deal with and went along with everything with an incredible sense of humour. Oh, by the way, shorts and long socks were normal attire in Auckland's hot and humid weather in summer.
Previously unpublished, this shot was sent to Darker than Blue magazine editor, Simon Robinson. last year along with the portrait I shot of David. I sent it along as a joke "bonus" but it obviously caught his fancy and became the feature shot for the article. The portrait appears over the page in the body of the article.
Darker than Blue is a high-quality, glossy magazine devoted to the group, Deep Purple. In its 59th edition since 1975, it is an encyclopedic examination of the various characters and incidents that mark Deep Purple's past,present and future.
The Tudor period was one the most exciting in British history. It gave England two of the strongest monarchs to ever sit on the English throne – the infamous Henry VIII and his daughter Elizabeth I, the Virgin Queen.
The classic and opulent style of the Tudor dynasty has influenced jewellery for generations. They personify the axiom that More is More. Tudor jewellery is not for the faint of heart. It is meant to make a statement -dramatic, elegant, bold, sensual and romantic. Each piece is opulent, embellished and luxurious with luscious gems and precious metals.
The Tudor Cuff exemplifies this era of jewellery. Czech shaped beads are woven and embellished with sparkling firepolished and seed beads. The cuff is made even more luxurious with the addition of dangling tassels. Definitely a piece of jewellery meant to be noticed.
