The chain is marked on two places, one of them only with an unknown for me hallmark and the other with what appears to be the same hallmark and the figure 915 or 916 below it. I read that this is typical mark for Indian 22 K gold. The pendant looks somewhat reddish compared to the chain. Am I on the right track?</p><p><br /></p><p>Any comment to help ID is very much appreciated!
