Mexican Sterling and Onyx Bracelet and Earrings - Circa 1950's

Jewelry : Vintage : Ethnic, Tribal

 

This is a fabulous Mexican sterling bracelet and earring set. Onyx is carved into four masks and four rectangles. Each rectangle is cut out so that three sterling straps are inlaid into the stone. Push type clasp on the bracelet is tight for a secure closure.

Bracelet inside measurement is 8" and individual hinged pieces are 1 5/8" wide. Quite a substantial piece and is marked "Sterling Mexico" and initials "O.F." or could be a "D.F." Please look at photographs. Matching earrings have screw type backs, 5/8" high and 3/4" wide, light weight and easy to wear.

Sterling has not been polished, only wiped with a soft jewelers cloth.

The only flaw is that one of the tiny silver earrings is missing on the center mask. I am sure that this set is from the 1950's.

Item will be shipped priority mail at $4.75 and insurance is suggested, but not required.
