Need help C. W. Team! All that glitters is not gold, or silver, but still can be beautiful. The metal bracelet may be part silver, I read once they used 600 or 700, (800 is pure or coin) I will test later, They are filthy dirty, I will clean later, The ivory one was 1/2 price and much cheaper than the other, it said as is as pin is stuck and can not open! This is 2nd bracelet with stuck pin, I got. the other open, but took a lot of work. The ivory colored one passed the pin test. I am wondering if the stone opens also on the one bracelet, it looks like it does and when I tap it is hollow sound inside, it is corroded and will not open, I will try olive oil first then WD-40. Any help is really appreciated on this, maybe Afghanistan or somewhere? Don
You'right not all beautiful jewelry is made from precious metal I like these bracelets
Thank you! They are very dirty and will look better soon! I wish I knew there history!!
Could be from India
You may be right! or Thailand, both have elephants and Afghanistan and desert Countries do not. Thanks!
I have moved on from these, they were a good buy, a Japanese woman has one very similar from Thailand, the Ivory one. Don thanks!
I think you are right, the all metal one is probably from India, I meant I have bought so much, I do not have time to check everything. You are right too I do not think they are silver, they were cheap! So I buy, sometimes great risk pays great rewards! Thank you for help and advice, I am just learning about all jewelry and art! Don
