This is a very large bracelet, very unusual. Belonged to my grandmother and is from mid-1950's latest. The faces appear to be synthetic (bakelite, perhaps?) rather than stone. Stamped "Mexico Sterling." Two pairs of earrings with matching stones. One pair has similar faces.
The faces are probably dyed onyx meaning they were originally black and dyed green. It is a lovely Mexican sterling set.
stunning looking hope you wear them.
The stone appears to be Mexican Jade and I am guessing that this bracelet says "Taxco" on the back, for Taxco, Mexico.
I HAVE VERY SIMILAR PIECE, BUT IN BLACK. MINE IS STAMPED TAXCO, WISH IT WAS BAKELITE, BUT IT'S NOT
