I have a either a small bracelet or anklet that is interwoven with gold and silver almost like a rope design. The mark that I cannot fin anywhere is a Capital "M" with the middle line of the M going straight to the top of the rest of the M. Anybody know this mark.

I can't exactly picture the mark. Do you have a picture or drawing of the mark you can post? Is the bracelet marked in any other way?

I don't recognize that mark right off. My guess is that it is "IM" or "MI" rather than just "M". I will try to research my jewelry mark book to find it.

Do you have any idea of the piece's age?

Paul, it has a claw or lobster clasp and looks to be 1940-1950, around there. John
