Hello and welcome.

The mark in the top picture is upside-down.
I believe that mark was used by Hopi Enterprises at least during the 1960's.
They were a shop that employed several silversmiths.

The mark in the second picture is probably belongs to the silversmith who made your bracelet.
Don't know who that was.

Pat.
