1.83 ozt Vtg Taxco Sterling Silver Hinged Bangle Bracelet with Crushed Malachite Inlay - This vintage hinged bangle bracelet is crafted from sterling silver, hallmarked 925, and originates from Mexico, consistent with the renowned Taxco style of silver work. The wide, robust band features intricate openwork geometric and stylized spiral patterns, creating compartments filled with a bright green crushed stone inlay, which appears to be malachite, set into a dark matrix. This chip inlay technique is characteristic of mid-century Mexican jewelry design. The bracelet is secured by a concealed hinge and a box clasp mechanism, operated by a spherical silver element, further enhanced by an attached sterling silver figure-eight safety chain.
