I found this in a large lot of jewelry, just couldnt find any information on it, and whether its a keeper or not. It is stamped on the inside Tihamer and MEP. It is small measuring 2 1/8" wide with a 1 7/8" opening, so possibly a child's bracelet. Has a tribal style motif around the outside. Thanks for any help or information.

Well isn't this a curious little bracelet...
It will be interesting to see what "becomes" of this piece...
Would not part with this yet.

Don't know if this is related but it is a trademark for MEP and it's in the jewelry category. MEP Trademark - Registration Number 1642733 - Serial Number 74044578 :: Justia Trademarks
That verdigris tells me that it's copper, brass or bronze? Not silver correct?
Other than this, I got nothing for you.

I believe it is bronze or brass alloy, not silver. I found somewhere online saying that Tihamer means "Peace and Quiet". There is a small peace symbol on the bracelet, so that could explain the Tihamer.
I found a few MEP pieces, but each was sterling silver. Could be from that Trademark designation you gave Dig. Thanks for looking.
