Tibetan-Style Mixed Metal Cuff Bracelet with Turquoise Inlay

This is a wide, cuff-style bracelet of Central Asian or Tibetan origin, likely crafted from a high-yield silver alloy or 'Tibetan silver' (a mix of copper, pewter, and nickel). The centerpiece is a large, bezel-set oval turquoise cabochon of a vibrant robin's-egg blue hue. The metalwork is elaborate, featuring heavy wire filigree, decorative granulated beads, and stamped geometric 'sawtooth' borders along the top and bottom periphery. Additional small circular metal appliques are spaced around the central stone. The construction suggests a mid-20th-century vintage, showing significant dark oxidation and aged patina consistent with its age. There are visible signs of wear, including minor surface scratches on the turquoise and heavy tarnish throughout the recessed areas of the filigree. No maker's marks are visible in this view, which is typical for handcrafted tribal or folk jewelry of this region. The craftsmanship displays traditional ethnic motifs with a robust, heavy-gauge construction designed for durability.
