Featured Sea Turtles Silver Bracelet - Mark?

I bought this lovely bracelet that features a pattern of sea turtles today. For such a open design, it is very heavy at 8 oz. It has a 925 mark. Under it, is "L J G." It appears to be hand stamped as the characters are not even. I tried to figure out what the "L J G" stood for and I came up empty. It looks sort of like the stamps you see on Native American Jewelry, but that is all I could get from my research. @Hollyblue spotted them as sea turtles, so now I'm looking for information about the mark.

 

Sea turtles,probably tourist item from the Caribbean.

 

That makes sense.

 

It looks like it was cast,alphabet stamps have been around for a long time and many people have used them.Available from auto supply stores,metal working supply shops,jewelry supply,etc. https://www.riogrande.com/category/tools-and-equipment/stamping-and-chasing

 

Very interesting. Cast sounds right. I have been exploring your lead for the sea turtle bracelet and haven't found anything similar but it appears it is a favorite in Hawaiian themes, and since I am from the west coast that seems likely.

 

On a side note, I once saw a 6 foot wide leatherback sea turtle close up while in a zodiac along the Nova Scotian coastline. Took a picture and showed it to the Canadian Sea Turtle Network, they were excited. So having a sea turtle bracelet would be great!

 

Very nice!

 

The cutout seems a popular style for Hawaiian pieces:

Perfect. Mine seems to be a version of this though slightly heavier. I just don't understand the initials on mine. Well at least I have an idea of where it came from. Thank you for tracking this down.
