Brand/Model: No hallmark. Artisan/Shop unidentified. Manufacturer Location: Mexico Year Produced: Unknown Specs/Description: This Mexican tourist folk art jewelry piece is a split-shank cuff bracelet crafted in alpaca silver. The center features a large, bezel-set oval pink shell cabochon framed by a classic twisted rope border. Accentuated on each side are hand-soldered decorative split-leaf motifs with fine vein details. The back of the focal plate is stamped with a "MEXICO" manufacturing origin mark. There are no precious metal purity markings. Please review all images. Sold as-is. Overall good condition with an authentic dark patina, surface wear, light scuffing, and tarnish appropriate for age and use. The pink shell cabochon remains smooth and securely seated in its bezel setting, and the open split-shank band retains its semi-rigid structure.
