Modernist necklace identification

Hello! I have this gorgeous necklace, very well made, modernist sterling piece. Cannot find the maker. Can somebody, please, help me? It would be such a shame to leave it unidentified, such a unique work. https://www.925-1000.com/pics/Ximg.jpg https://www.925-1000.com/pics/Ximg.jpg Thank you for you...

Help identifying Old Mexican earrings

Hi fellows.
I got these nice modernist earrings, I assume from 60s-70s.
Can anybody help identify the maker? I've tried and tried, and can't decipher it.

Small tray questions

Hi.

Recently purchased a small tray in US.
Has a strange mark that I cannot find. It looks like a griffin, a winged creature of some sort.
Any help with identification will be greatly appreciated!

Thank you!

Re: Asian dragon bracelet

I understand that, as I mentioned initially it was tested with magnet AND acid.
I've done some silver work myself, so I know for a fact that it's silver, just not sure of the purity.

It (bracelet) is not magnetic. Silver acid test showed it to be silver. No sure what purity, but definitely silver.

Modernist bracelet mark

Hi dear forum! I'm stumped, searched the internet high and low and still cannot find this mark! It seems pretty defined and I thought would be easy to find, but no luck. It's a sterling silver cuff bracelet, freeform style. I'd say 1970s. Any suggestions? https://www.925-1000.com/pics/Ximg.jpg https...

Re: Silver dish hallmark question

Thank you AG2012!
As I understand it's a replica of older silver or is it one of their own designs?
And do you think it's sterling or 800 silver?

Thank you for your help!

Hi to the wonderful people of the forum! Just got a little antique dish, it's about 3.5" long. I assume it is European? Nice piece, but I am soooo not proficient in silver hallmarks. Any idea what these are? Your help will be greatly appreciated!!! https://www.925-1000.com/pics/Ximg.jpg https:/...

Unique modernist bracelet hallmark please help!

Hello fellows. So far this forum was amazing! Maybe somebody can help me solve this riddle :) The bracelet does not have a sterling mark, but I tested it w acid and magnet and it looks to be sterling. I made 3 views of the same hallmark to provide different views. https://www.925-1000.com/pics/Ximg....

Hi. A friend got a nice heavy bracelet, with Vikings / Dane soldiers relief, very nice wide piece. Sorry, don't have the photo of the bracelet itself, didn't think of taking it, but have the mark. I'd love your help with identifying the maker! Thank you! https://www.925-1000.com/pics/Ximg.jpg https:...
