I found this bracelet at a thrift shop. It looks handmade. I cannot read any stamps except one that says 925/sterling. I am hoping someone might recognize he style.

Thank you so much Valentino97. I can now research it. I have one more to post.
Looks like Taxco, but the marks are blurry in the photo. The one mark is a double headed eagle, which looks very iffy to me. You have to be very careful with these sorts of bracelets because these are also made as fake silver with fake stamps. The .925 and sterling stamps are also suspicious. Give it the magnet test. Silver is not magnetic. You would need to take it to a jeweler for a 100% positive identification, however.

The genuine blue glass jewelry is made with cobalt glass.

Thanks Efesgirl. The eagle looks like one that has wings outstretched. I thought one of the marks was Mexico City. A magnet does not stick. It will be a gift for my daughter. She likes it. I appreciate all of your help.
