In French, the term "torsade" translates to "twist" or "cable," which is the perfect way to describe a necklace or bracelet made from multiple strands of pearls or gemstones that are twisted together. This Victorian-era torsade bracelet features eight strands of natural pearls with 18-karat gold rondelles that's finished with a ruby- and diamond-embellished clasp in an openwork scroll design.
