Vintage sterling silver enamel bracelet - AEF Co. Age?

[testing123]

Got out yesterday to a place that used to have a lot of activity. Towards the end of the hunt, the e-trac signaled something like a pull tab. Only about an inch down of digging through rough soil, I spot a charm. Pull it out and was surprised to see it was a bracelet with three charms (might be missing a fourth one). It looked like maybe brass, but the clasp wiped clean like silver, and had a beautiful design. Figured it was junk anyway and put it in the pouch. A couple hours after being home, remembered to take a look at it. Glanced at the clasp and saw something that looked like "ling". NOOO.... could it be silver? Yes, it's Sterling! It's from a company "AEF Co." Haven't found much info on it, but it appears to be older. Any ideas on age?

Looks like guilloche enamel - maybe 1930s-40s

Hello, there. I do a lot with antiques and the bracelet looks like it is from around the 30s or 40s.
The heart charms look like they are done in French guilloche enamel, but I can't tell from your pictures, for sure. Guilloche enamel will show a fine detail of engine turned designs etched into the metal background, under the translucent enamel. Very nice find.
