    It looks either Thai or Burmese, and a great find, beautiful. Maybe @kyratango knows.:)


    Siam is the old name for Thailand. It was still used as a mark on silverware after the name change.
    So Thai Siam is a duplication of the country of origin.;) It is either one or the other.
    If a Thai item isn't marked 'Siam', I would simply use the official name Thailand or Thai.

    It’s not marked. Just a number 8. Tested 800 silver

    I wouldn't expect it to be, because this isn't what is known as Siam jewellery. Siam jewellery is tourist ware.
    I was speaking in a more general sense, because people come across Thai jewellery marked Siam and get confused about the date.:)
