Vintage Taxco Mexican Sterling Silver Geometric Link Bracelet - 1980s - C3157

Summary

A vintage Mexican sterling silver bracelet with substantial geometric links, diamond shaped openings and smoothly polished surfaces. Individually hinged links form a relatively flat band, with an integrated fastening.

Description

A vintage sterling silver bracelet made in Taxco, Mexico, dating to the 1980s.

The bracelet is constructed from a series of individually hinged silver links, each formed with a distinctive geometric design incorporating diamond shaped openings and, smoothly polished sections.

The links are closely fitted, producing a relatively flat bracelet with a gently articulated movement. The reverse reveals the individual joints and the solid construction of the links, which measure approximately 3.4 mm thick.

The bracelet has an integrated hook and fold over clasp. The fastening is incorporated into the link design rather than being a separate conventional jewellery clasp.

One of the links is stamped Mexico 925 TR-50. This is a Mexican silver registration mark, with the letter T identifying Taxco and the remaining characters representing the registered silversmith.

The bracelet has a weight of 40.4 grams and is suitable for men or women. Its overall length is 20.5 cm, fitting wrists up to approximately 18.5 cm.

Good vintage condition with minor surface wear consistent with age and use.
