I got lucky and picked up some great jewelry from a local thrift. I got a great 26g 18k bracelet that I plan to wear until I sell it. It has an unusual clasp (which makes it easy to put on and remove myself) and feels great on the wrist. It’s marked “750”, “* 469 MI”, and also a name that starts with a T or F or K. I know it’s Milano, Italy but have zero idea who made it. Anyone familiar with the mark?

I found 469 VI. It's Adolpho Vittorio
I'll keep looking.
Update:
According to this listing, it is POMELLATO

Wow! Thank you! I would have NEVER guessed that the first letter was a “P”! You rock!

I actually got it in a jewelry box for $70. The rest of the good items were some silver, a couple James Avery pendants and ring, and a silver David Yurman ring. It was a great score. I thought the bracelet was plated until I looked at the unusual clasp and then saw the tiny Italian marks! Thanks for the ID! I searched for 469 Italy and Milano for over a week!

I'd get some good pictures and shoot them an email to see if they will ID it. I can't find another like it, it might well be a custom piece. Major score, I think worth 4-6k.
