    Hello,

    I am looking to get as much info on these items as I can. So far I an running into dead ends.

    It appears to be silver it is not magnetic.
    The trarnish that is observed on clasps and such kind of make me think it is.

    I cannot make heads or tails of the markings.

    Any help would be appreciated. Just want to learn more about this...I think they are stunning.

      The rectangular mark reads BA 800 (silver content), and the small mark is GM. They seem to be a rather prolific maker of non-precious and sometimes low content silver jewelry with cameos in modest price range. Here are two examples (disregard the overly optimistic asking price):

      Thank you Davyd.
      That is very helpful.

      Now I see ba 800 as before I saw A8C.
