    Hello! I'm just wondering if anyone knows what these markings are on this sterling cuff! the only thing I can make out is the D but not the two markings left of it!

    Looks to me like it says "A" in a capital script, then "test" in a small case text.....also looks like a Capital "B" in faint script at the very end! What's it say way back where your hand is holding it??

    Left A with something stamped on top,middle S with something around it and D on the right. Could be hobbyist made,etc.

    NOW that middle bit.....looks to me like it might be a southwestern influence!!!! Maybe a horse's bit (from a bridle) with a 'lazy s' inside!!!

    WHOSE?????? THAT I wouldn't know!!!!

    I can kind of see an anchor in the S part at that angle!

    It would be simple enough to make in about 20 minutes.Looks like 5 mm half round wire,flattened in the center and tapered toward the ends.The ends slightly flattened and the ends pushed toward the center to bend.

    @Kimbert That S with the anchor is probably the mark for Sausalito Craftworks (the C is worn off along with part of the anchor).

    @i need help I have found several bracelets by them over the years. Always brass, copper or a mix. Never found a sterling one though. Hope I do someday, it will go right on my wrist with all the other sterling bracelets I will be buried with!

    Let’s hope that’s a long way off! :)
    I did see a lot of other metals, mostly.
