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 C1900 Chinese Gold Filigree Bracelet with Stones Archives: Estate Jewelry: Ethnic: Far Eastern: Pre 1930   item# 734937 (stock#j999)  click for details Sally Rude Antiques and Fine Art Gallery 850-385-3211 SOLD  Here we have a wonderful antique Chinese "charm" bracelet consisting of pierced gilt metal links, charms of semi precious stones and a filigree and enamel closure.

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.

Deeply carved, and mellow of color, it looks lovely on the grosgrain ribbon necklace. The ribbon has beads of ivory, one at the back of the neck, one above the pendant, that you may be able to adjust, but I haven't tried. The pendant is carved on one side, flat on the back, and is 2 1/2" as it hangs from the bale. The ribbon is 34" long. Chinese Belt Buckle, High Relief, Brass Archives: Estate Jewelry: Ethnic: Far Eastern: Pre 1920   item# 82894 (stock#172)  click for details Sally Rude Antiques and Fine Art Gallery 850-385-3211 SOLD  This is a wonderful brass buckle, the kind that closes with a lip that slides into a slot. It is cast in high relief with foo dogs and entwined dragons with 3 claws. I am unfamiliar with the meaning of the symbols, and it has no markings other than the design. I think it is probably 19th to early 20th century. It is substantial and well made. The size is 2 1/2" by 1 1/4".
