Question on Bracelet

Hi I am new here and want advice on what this bracelet could possibly be. I THINK it may be a Bedouin but the only stamp or etching I see is EGYPT. I cleaved it with silver polish and it shines like new. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Welcome, @Elizabeth Victoria! The terms aren't mutually exclusive. There is a large Bedouin population in Egypt.

Hi...an' yes, Welcome!
Lovely piece of silver craft...thanks!

 

Hi, welcome!

Please know that lots of metals will shine up with silver polish, that is not a test for silver. Also, despite what you may have read, a magnet not attaching is also not a test for silver

Please look it over carefully, Egypt is known for teeny, tiny silver marks, often on the front. If you find no marks you will have to take it to someone who can test for silver to be sure.

 

Where would I have it tested???? And I have looked and looked and no tiny markings.

 

The ones I'm finding via Google Lens are all marked on top and bottom front. Hard to miss.

Yes, that is why I am wondering if this is just scrap metal. There are no visible markings.

 

Good advice above to have it tested jic.

Classic Bedouin Egyptian braided bracelet and most likely 800 silver. I love these.

 

No not scrap!!!

 

Very handsome, isn't it? Most impactful worn as a pair.

Love these and had a pair in the 70s-never should have given them up.
