    I am not into jewelry.. and have no idea where I picked this up. My thought was it was a vintage copy or fake. It is marked N R . Please tell me what I have !

    Mine too, the 'stones' are glued in. Do they feel warmish or cold?

    Center stone is not cold. Yes, stones are glued in. What does N R mean ?

    Some kind of plastic, then. NR would be the manufacturer. A pretty costume bracelet in Zuni cluster style.

    I agree it's costume. Could be Nancy & Rise. Doesn't look like Nina Ricci. Could even be some type of Avon mark, though Avon is pretty good about putting their name somewhere on pieces. Not always though.

    This is the 1st time that I see one of these that my 1st thought is , it's a fake Zuni Petit Point bracelet.

    More Thanks to all of you - I checked ebay and saw similar that were real. For whatever reason I forget to check etsy

    Sorry, I thought the Zuni Petit point "style" was a given. I was trying to figure out which costume jewelry designer made/sold it.

    It's Avon; NR is one of their marks. It used to be thought it was Narcisco Rodriguez, but it's just a code for the manufacturing plant it came out of. The mark is dead common here.

    I agree with the NR being the plant code. I understand when it comes to Avon nowadays the initials some times seen are not the designer but an internal code used for the company who manufactured the piece for Avon. Eg SH, NR, MR, etc.
    I believe, once upon a time if it was Avon it was stamped as such along with a designer name if applicable. Nowadays not so much it seems.

    The other mystery Avon mark is the small circle with a dot in it. I found a few pieces with both marks, but lots just have the circle.

    I rather like the Avon NA inspired stuff. Might not be precious metal, but they did good designs.
