Austro-Hungarian or Italian? - Antique Striped Agate Bracelet

[Zeke]

Amongst all the lingering jewlery items I still hold here trying to learn more about them is this old bracelet.   I thought I had found enough similar pieces to nail it down to Buda-Pest Austro-Hungarian era.   But as I persisted I admit the only place I find a PV listed is for Pavia in Italy!   Let's start by showing you the thing and if you might help .. truly appreciated once more.   Zeke

I know you will not be able to parse the marks .. but they are clearly to be this:

One oval has a PV in it.  The other a very clear A835, which I presume is the silver quality and perhaps a country or city letter.

Here is some examples of PV 835....they ALL seem to be older than 1966 to me.  But, I did not find the description of the P standing for Pest, that I sa during my last search.

Molly.  Clearly this is the genre and period of my bracket.   In particular I note the mention of the detailed jump links, as in mine with the little pearly things on them!     Now, the Worthpoint description is a maybe to me.   The described didn’t really know either.   Not saying it is wrong or misleading, but it isn’t authorative citation.   I believe it but it wouldn’t hold up in court so to speak.  

The jury is out on the PV thing.  The A835 was obvious really, and I have acid tested it and would agree.  

Diid you happen to see this link I stuck into the discussion sort of out of order with the context?    If not, check this source out.    Thanks again.  As usual you get closest to the mark!   Zeke

I found the picture  :)

Hey thanks!  There are those shells too!   Nice.    I’m feeling OK calling it thus!   Zeke

I might add Molly … I was looking at this again .. I called it a bracelet.   It is 12 inch!  Be a real loose bracelet .. thinking it may be more of a 'choker' than a bracelet .. whadya think?

I would say, I HOPE it is not a bracelet!  Yes, definitely sounds more like a choker or necklace for a slight woman.
