Old antique Victorian silver bracelet

in #steemsilvergold6 years ago

So in South Africa I had my mother collect me some antique silver... not just any antique silver... some really nice design antique jewellery. Now I had no clue about reading hallmark English silver, I only had a little bit of knowledge .. but this silver buy of mine finally gave me a reason to go deep down and do some research about this braclet

Now I might be abit wrong in my research but, I’ve looked the whole of the internet for this same design and also from antique silver jewellery stores online to see if I could find and what they know about it.. and I only found one ☝️ place which stated it was a Victorian time silver bracelet

I carried on looking this time for the hallmark “JS” and the other symbols and I came across an identical looking “JS” and symbols in the same order as my one.. but instead of having an “H” the one in the artical had a “G”... but I do understand that the letter stands for the year it was made.

So I found these on the website I saw my antique silver bracelet on, and just thought the prices where crazy back the..talk about inflation...
