    You DO realize the gold one is marked 18k dont you ? Look closely on the green one for markings,sometimes its on the tongue .Fabulous !

    Yes I saw that .... I found one that was called the Chinese filgren dragon/Phoenix that was 24k. I was curious if anyone thought these symbols are dragons?? Also, I couldn't find one that has the extra chain clasp with a heart and key..☺️

    Thank you!!! I got the green one open and you were right. It says Sterling Germany.

    Well, I've been finding them for weeks and trying to look them up. Being part of this forum helps so much. My problem is, I'm having some serious ADHD and can't stay focused on one thing..hehe.

    @Laura1969 ....here's a tip...
    You're showing high quality expensive items to us....but in short order we'll get frustrated looking at your hand and living room..!

    Get a white & black ....towel, sheet, paper....something....and use it as a background so we can properly see your items , clear and in focus, and start measuring them.
    Help us, to help you !!!
    Once you know what u need to know.....catalog it ....so in the future you'll remember !

    Just saying...........it's time to be more professional about the treasures you're finding !!

    I'm gonna try.. please understand I've just been so excited today that people actually know about my things . I'll tell you an awesome horrible sad thing that started this out. My mother had under her China cabinet these two scary dogs. I have always been very into antique furniture but did not know much about jewelry or other things like silver or more importantly, STRAFFORDSHIRE DOGS that I gave to Goodwill because they scared me. They were about 12 to 15 inches tall, white with gold trim throughout the bodies. Once I got over my initial grieving, I started looking up all these STRAFFORDSHIRE pieces I have and found those ugly dogs I gave away. I Couldnt stop laughing at how hard my mother must have been yelling at me from her grave- NOT THE DOGS, Laura, As I placed them in the Goodwill box. Thank Goodness that was the only thing I gave away. Since then I have been taking my time to learn about everything!!! I have been back to that Goodwill store twice and found two other sets but neuter like three ones my mom had..

    There is nothing better than three good neutered, plus two set of STRAFFORDSHIRE dogs, I really must say. :)

    Need detailed close up of the bracelet panel where your dragon is to be able to identify the "beast":cyclops::joyful:

    I’m with your mum on this one! Firstly because ugly doesn’t mean worthless, and secondly because I’m partial to a STRAFFORDSHIRE myself... ;D The bracelets are lovely though, you should wear them!

    Love the Chinese one.:happy:
    I see a lot of bamboo, but since your camera focused on your fingers and the rest is blurry, it is impossible to see anything else. I tried to tweak it, no great help. Looking forward to new photos of just the bracelet.
    If I were to hazard a guess it is plum blosson on the left, and certainly bamboo on the right. Maybe every panel represents a different flower or plant? How many panels are there?

    I suspect the chain is a replacement. Personally I would remove that and add a plain safety chain. This 'sweetheart look' does the beautiful style of the bracelet no favours imo.
