For your consideration in this lot are Vintage Mexican Sterling Bracelets, circa 1950s-1970s. Mexican silver is known as having a particular style and sterling silver content, usually signified by silver marks. While the craft of making silver jewelry is a relatively recent development among Indians of the American Southwest, this is far from the case in Mexico. There, the Spanish taught the Indians to work silver centuries ago. The result over time has been the emergence of a unique Mexican style of silver jewelry combing the Spanish love for bold, dramatic effects with the native talent for colorful, expressive decoration. The contemporary silver jewelry industry in Mexico began in the mid-1920s and coincided with a great revival of interest in archaeological research. First bracelet is a sterling and leather cuff bracelet with Aztec motif, stamped "925" on reverse. Second bracelet features chevron pattern design, "925" stamped on reverse. Third bracelet features a chain and link design with a toggle closer bar, rainbow abalone composite sections, "925" is stamped on the toggle bar. The last bracelet is a charm bracelet featuring seven charms, the middle charm being an Aztec Mayan calendar. The bracelets are in nice condition, warm patina noted. Bracelets measure 2.5" diameter approximately, combined weight is 77.2 grams.
