"Dragon's Breath" is the contemporary collectors' term for a striking type of art glass that radiates shifting flashes of blue, violet, and magenta against a warm red background. Although it is often mistaken for opal or a natural gemstone, it is actually a carefully crafted early 20th-century glass designed to mimic the fiery iridescence of precious stones, all with its own enchanting personality. Its history is linked to the rise of costume jewelry, American innovation, and the artistic experiments of the late Victorian and early Edwardian periods.

The bracelet is in excellent vintage condition, showing typical signs of wear. Its surface has fine scratches and lines, but nothing noticeable or distracting. There are no marks or stamps.

The bracelet measures 7" long and 7/8" wide, weighing 45.55 grams.
