Sterling Silver Figaro Link ID Bracelet

This is a heavy sterling silver identification (ID) bracelet weighing 2.1 ounces (approximately 65.3 grams). The piece features a classic Figaro link construction, characterized by a repeating pattern of three short round links followed by one elongated oval link. The central focus is a rectangular nameplate plaque, which is currently engraved with the initials 'MCM' in a block-style serif font. The bracelet is secured by a robust lobster claw clasp and finished with decorative end caps featuring a ribbed or stepped design. Regarding the material and craftsmanship, the piece is confirmed to be .925 sterling silver based on the '925' hallmark visible on the end cap near the clasp mechanism. The condition shows significant signs of wear consistent with regular use, including a heavy gray and dark patina (tarnish) recessed into the links and engraved areas. There are numerous surface scratches and micro-abrasions throughout the metal, particularly on the polished surface of the ID plate. The links appear sturdy, though the overall aesthetic suggests a vintage or pre-owned piece likely dating from the late 20th century. The weight of 2.1 ounces indicates a high-quality, solid construction rather than a hollow or faceted lightweight alternative.
