A beautiful and unique bracelet created by the Kirk Family, known for their whimsical jewelry, clothing and home décor.  The words “Kirk’s Folly” are stamped in the metal on the back of the bracelet.  According to the Kirk’s, every product reflects their philosophy based on their information on QVC: “Dreams really do come true.

This particular bracelet is considered a lucky link bracelet where the clasp features a crystal rhinestone encrusted Pot of Gold. A lovely Angel with enameled wings in the lucky color of green is popping out of the Pot. The Angel lovingly has her hands spread out peacefully over the Pot.
