    I recently purchased this bracelet. No hallmarks. Pin clasp. I still need to test it for sterling. The style is quite unusual. I'd love your thoughts on it.

    Barn, I am not very happy about the back. The front looks intentionally sloppy with lots of irregularities and blobs, and sloppy patination.
    It looks like a cheap and cheerful Middle Eastern souvenir bracelet to me, but I would love to be proven wrong.

    Thank you. I didn't pay too much for it, so I'm not too devastated... I'll let you know if it tests as silver.

    @Barn Owl, what are these marks here???? Multiplied 4X......the upper arrow could be nothing.....the end part of clasp does say something......

    The rainbowy toning on back looks more like what you see on plated stuff. It is seen on actual silver too obviously but most often on plated IMO.
