Information about gate link bracelets
Gate bracelets were great signifiers of true love during the Victorian era and beyond. This bracelet style was meant for lovers, especially those who were destined to be apart for a long period, with most coming complete with a padlock and key. The padlock style fastening was only meant to be opened once they returned to each other’s arms.
The bracelet is made up of panels that are said to emulate the gates and fences of English country estates and castles. The design got its name, ‘gate bracelet’ from the unusual chain style of interlocked barred panels.
Believed to symbolise love and fidelity, gate bracelets demonstrate the Victorian fixation with romanticism and chastity.
