Mexican silver bracelet

[MelmoUK]

Hi all,

I bought this gorgeous, silver, hinged bracelet at a car boot (am from the UK, I guess it's out equivalent of a garage sale)

I'd really love to find out a little more about it if I could. It's marked "Mexico 925" then "TH - 59" I have no idea what the bracelet is inlaid with and would love to know whether anyone has any ideas!

It's marked "Mexico 925" then "TH - 59"

could be this system of marking, 2nd para, the eagle system was replaced with lettering
1st letter place 2nd letter surname letter, if im reading it correctly

Thanks for the reply.... And the welcome!

It's very unique, I love it!

Do you have any idea what the inlay may be?

Looks like black pearl inlay

I am going with mother of pearl inlay(abalone shell)common in mexican jewelry....

 

[Back-of-the-boat]

Mother of pearl just like Bigfoot said.

Thanks very much for your help guys!

I only paid £10 for it so it was a real bargain but I absolutely adore it and will be keeping it!

Using the reference website, the bracelet was made in Taxco Mexico sometime after 1979 by a craftsman with the last name starting with H and he was the 59th person with last name beginning with H that was registered.
