AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This is a 925 sterling silver turquoise inlaid bracelet from Mexico.

The main body is made of 925 sterling silver (the inner wall is engraved with "MEXICO STERLING 925," where "MEXICO" indicates the origin and "STERLING 925" is the international standard for sterling silver).

The embellishment consists of turquoise inlays: turquoise fragments are filled into silver grooves, and the surface is sealed to reveal a blue-green texture.

The style is an open-clasp bracelet: the bracelet body is a narrow, curved strip, with a slot on one end and a clasp on the other, allowing for slight size adjustment to fit different wrists.

The craftsmanship involves recessed stone inlay: long grooves are pre-cut in the silver bracelet body, filled with turquoise fragments, and then secured. The overall style is simple and retro, a common design in Mexican silver jewelry: a "basic design + gemstone embellishment."
