Destination Hook Bracelet — $195 — Sunset Hill Jewelers and Fine Art — 610.692.0374 — 23 N High St
For centuries, West Chester had held permanent stature in Pennsylvania history, as well as being heralded for architectural significance and beauty by being listed in the National Register of Historic Places.

The West Chester Destination Hook Bracelet is a highly unique and fitting tribute in precious metal to this town with so many outstanding attributors.
