I bought this bracelet at a antique shop in Denver. I wonder what the stone is and was unsure about the inside stamp. It is very nice looking and I would like to know if the stamp indicates if it is actually silver and I would love to know what the stone is or maybe just glass. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks much.

Does the little mark say * 950 * in an Oval circle?
Yes I think that is the marking 950 inside a circle. Does that denote the silver content? Thanks for the question made me look closer at the mark.
Can't make out the colour of the stone - too many reflections because the photo is taken outside. They're lovely photos by the way. Could you please take some more pictures inside please. Thank you.
A very pretty bracelet! If the stone is a pure black, then it's Onyx. Obsidian is another pure black stone, but not likely that this is Obsidian.
Countries currently using .950 silver are:
France (highest quality)
Japan
Switzerland
Yugoslavia
Bulgaria
Romania
Hungary
Gillian - thanks for having a look. Yes I need to take an indoor picture. The stone is not actually black but a dark brown with some kinda swirl inside. I will add photos soon. Thanks again.
Efesgirl - thanks for the information for various countries that use that silver content stamp. The stone is really I think a dark brown with maybe a "swirl" that is difficult to see at the top. I need to take some indoor shots of the stone. Appreciate your comments & information.
Yes 950 is a silver content, closer to sterling than 800 or 850 which is commonly known as "coin silver" since so many coins were made of 800 or 850 silver like Canadas older silver dollars were, and a lot of european silver was that also. A lot of silver tableware was made of that denomination also.
