This bracelet was featured on Antiques Roadshow, 2015. Jaques & Marcus, founded in New York City in the early 1880's, George B. Jaques and William E. Marcus, son of Herman Marcus, jeweler to Tiffany & Co., left Tiffany to join his son's firm and in 1892, the Marcus' bought out Jaques, forming Marcus & Co. In 1882 they published a book entitled, Something About Neglected Gemstones. ÒIt seems strangeÓ, they reflected, Òthat people have been content with a colorless stone, while beautiful gems that have colors of wonderful richness and purity have been comparatively neglected. By use of color the work of the jeweler is raised to a fine art.Ó (Martha Gandy Fales, Jewelry in America: 1600-1900, p.422)
