Overview:
Finely detailed vintage Nautical charm bracelet crafted in 14 karat yellow gold (circa 1950s to 1960s)..
The nautical themed enameled bracelet features 9 enameled nautical flags. The flags represent a dual purpose with the first letter of each flag spelling out the word "Bon Voyage".

November: "No" or "Negative"
Victor: I require assistance
Oscar: Man overboard
Yankee: Am dragging anchor
Alfa: I have a diver down; keep well clear at slow speed

The bracelet is in very good condition and was recently lightly cleaned and polished.
