I've always been a huge fan of the jewellery produced by the cottage industry that sprang up to provide servicemen with mementos, and this is a great example. Made from a USAAF Aircrew Qualification wing that's been very gently curved and had a bracelet attached. This particular example is on a very chunky bracelet that feels very inkeeping with the time period. Rather unusually, this is a plated brass example, with the plating removed leaving a nice brassy finish.

Size

  • Measures 8" from tip to tip, 8.5" allowing for the curve of the wing
  • Comfortably fits my wrist which measures 7" circumference and could easily be adjusted to a small wrist if desired
