    Description

    This lightweight bracelet is one you'll likely wear often.  Well designed and made, it features a flower-like design topped with a bezel-set large bead. The links feature the same capped bead design and there are tiny little beads dancing around the flowers. Length is 7.25", width 5/8", and weight is 15.8 grams.
    Signed on clasp Iguala 925 Hecho en Mexico in circle, with letters FSS in middle, an artisan mentioned in Hougart's book of Mexican hallmarks. Likely made 1920s to 1940s. Iguala is a town about 20 miles south of Taxco, where many famous Mexican silversmiths hailed from, including Artemio Navarette and Los Ballesteros.
    Condition is excellent, with the exception of a dent to the center of one of the beads on one of the connecting links. Also, as you can see in the pictures, those connectors tend to flip over--sometimes bead is in front, sometimes in back. Perhaps they weren't pinched together to allow for more movement in the bracelet?
