To the collector of Mexican silver, this vintage 50's bracelet, crafted of 970 silver, resembles in every way, the work of Antonio Pineda. The hallmarks, however, do not bear this out. In design, construction and elegance, one might conclude that it was quite possibly made by someone who worked in his taller. It is a heavy 130 grams, 7"L x 1"W,set with eight opals and eight pearls. Excellent condition.
