This bracelet is a fabulous example of early jewelry created in Taxco, Mexico during the early 1930’s. The design of the bracelet was obviously influenced by William Spratling and most likely created by an artisan employed in his studio. Hallmarks are very early 1930’s prior to the Eagle marking system which went into effect in 1948.
