I bought this off a someone who regularly has a table at the local antique/brocante market on Thursdays. The bracelet was unusual enough for me to give her the 10 buck price. The domed cabochon stones got my interest.
Added is a photo of the 835 stamp and the maker initials, which I can't completely decipher.
UPDATE: Sugarloaf Cabochons. Sweet! Thanks, Pascale!
Thanks for any help!

@Ken - no, hard like glass/stone.
They stones look cornelian and the bracelet probably German
Oops *them* what's wrong with me tonight, I blame it on predictive text.
That glow.... I love your find :-)
Yep, carnelian, kind of sugarloaf cabs.
THANKS, All! Pascale - first time I've ever heard of sugarloaf cab carnelian. I looked it up and found this bracelet (however, I think the price is nuts!):

Wow, it's very stylish Bonnie. Nice stones! Love the sturdy settings too; it all sits so well together.
Glad to have been able to increase your great jewellery knowledge Bonnie!
The bracelet in the link is French, bearing the boar's head hallmark. Price is high for gilded silver....
It's a stunner, I love it!
