This is a very unusual bracelet. It has the Russian Silver mark of the sickle and hammer within a star along with 875, which symbolizes that it was made after 1958. It also has another marking which appears to be the cyrillic alphabet. What is cool about the markings is that they are outside instead of inside of the bracelet. It has a swaggering style to the lines of the strands. It has three large boxes attached to the front. In each one is a stylized animal. There is a mountain goat, gazelle, and a ram. It would measure 9 in. if it were laid out straight. I get the feeling of strength emitting from this piece. It is a fabulous find. The creatures in this piece are part of our ~Merry Menagerie~
