This is an earlier Mexican silver bracelet, I would guess mid century at the latest. It is the kind that is hinged in the back and clamps shut around your wrist. It is inlaid with abalone shell that is just gorgeous. There is a center band that has silver balls on either side. It has a circular mark inside that essentially says made in Mexico, and has in the center of the mark initials that I believe are GP, which would be the maker. It is not marked sterling. It is in very fine condition.... Click for details

here we have an interesting necklace consisting of beads of some type of dark blue and blue-gray stone with three large butterscotch colored amber beads in the front. I wonder if the blue beads could be lapis, but I have not seen lapis with this much light color in it, so I really don't know. however, the combination of the blue beads and the amber is striking, as the pictures will show. The necklace is approximately 19" and has a screw type closure. It is in excellent condition.
