          I'm not kidding.

          It's thick sheet brass and heavy as a handful of nickels.

                                Not exactly a tinnie,

                                but interesting nonetheless as it ties in with James' "Iron for Gold" piece posted recently.

                                This 1916 bracelet from Germany, which was at that time received in return for a donated gold item, proclaims "Gold for Defense; Iron for Honor" and "In the Iron Epoch". It's exceptionally well made, has a great patina and a nice "worn" look.

                                I suspect it was a necklace at the time of the "trade", shortened into a large bracelet later on. The clasp, though very well made and quite ornamental, appears to be a replacement, probably affected at the time of the piece's foreshortening.

                                All in all, a nice collectible with a history.
