Ok here we go
Fred bought me the bracelet when we were first married and added
charms over the years.
18c bracelet, a goldstone buddha on a gold base with turquoise beads
around the base
a gold bell with a diamond in it,the seal,a greenstone heart,another
gold heart with Mizpah written on it, gold kewpie,Star of David, gold
bauble with pink stones (rose Quartz),my grandfathers watch key with a
pink stone on one side and another stone( which name escapes me)a
little gold box with a man sitting on the top with a keg and if you
pull a lever he lifts his arm and drinks.a gold heart with a photo of
Fred on one side and Becca on the other (aged about 3). gold locket
with turquoise stone in it, a freshwater pearl with a gold rim,a gold
circle with Frederick Bower the Genius engraved on it ( he used to be
known by that nickname and I had it made for him but he gave it to me
for my bracelet!)an Anglican cross and another gold disc with Geneva
