Hi, I think this is a "Forget Me Not" bracelet from WWII.  Names could be engraved on the blank panels.  Also, I believe the flowers are Forget Me Nots.  Maybe this will help research, anyway.  Claudia

1940s would be the right era.  I really like this bracelet.  I also believe that Claudia has nailed the purpose of this piece to a T.

Though the beauty may be in the butterfly, the struggle and growth occur in the cocoon.

Yes, forget me not. WWII era, classed as sweetheart or sentimental jewelry. Coro was not the only manufacturer, some were unsigned. Apparently you bought the links individually and had a jeweler engrave the names; you could also buy links with military service insignia. Some were for families, some for people who worked together, some for classmates.

One more thing...do you think that the fact that it is not engraved will add or subtract from the value??
