Lovely Victorian snake bangle that swivels open, rather like one of those rare snake rings. The head hooks, and the tail clips, so that it is secure, then when you unclip you swivel open to put on.
This means that it is close fitting and doesn't spin around.
The head is set with ruby eyes over which are applied expressive gold eyebrows.
