    I just bought this piece at a thrift shop near me. It is 925 silver and was made in Israel. I am hoping someone could help me with a bit more information if possible like the age and if the design has any kind of meaning and or maybe a name behind the design. Thank you in advance and I sincerely appreciate all your help!

    It was made after 1947.(LOL) I think it's older rather than newer based on the hallmark, but how much older is "older"? The hinge and clasp are still being used in the Middle East, so that's no help. Someone else might know more.

    Put a close up photo of the entire mark and I will tag someone who may be able to read it.

    Give it some time. Maybe @Any Jewelry can give some information? If you paid a Thrift store price, I think you did very well.

    It's Hebrew.(LOL) I don't read any. It doesn't say Israel, but beyond that I don't know.

    I think it is “for Bezalel” which means in the shadow [under the protection] of God. bezelel was the artisan of the ark and temple, I think

    Gorgeous bracelet, Estater.
    Absolutely Yemenite.:)

    Yemenite is the term for Jewish people who moved to Israel from Yemen.
    Yemeni is the general term for people from Yemen.
    Yemenite jewellery is essentially Yemeni in style, but made in Israel.

    Many silversmiths in the Arab and North African world were Jewish, and they took the styles of their home countries with them to Israel. The most prominent group were the Yemenite silversmiths. Yemen has always been a silver country, the land of Sheba.
    There are still Jewish silversmiths in the Arab and North African world.
