I would appreciate any information related to this piece of jewelry OR help on where to find this information. I believe this is a bracelet. It does need repairing at 1 of the joints!
- Is this vintage/time period
-no makers mark, but if this may look like a specific makers piece & who
-how to describe what this is, etc.
Thank you in advance for your time & any information you may have.

Old timers in the antique jewelry shows sold these as "Turkish made,painted with a single Camel hair. At one point and time they sold for high dollar (80s & 90s time frame) The material it is painted on is "Mother of Pearl" sometimes they used bone.
Pin pointing a time frame may be hard any where from Victorian thru the 30s. Not sure when the work ended however something similur was made by artist in China using different themes.Its possible they were both making them at the same time frame. I havent seen one in years, use to see them at least once a month. So maybe you have something that is very rare now and worth some money, enough to warrent getting it fixed. The little flower (clasp?) may tell the time frame.Nice to see the panels are not scratched up.
Maybe someone has some real info that can help you out.

Looks like the art is painted on mother of pearl or perhaps ivory in which case you could not sell on Ebay as it is not allowed. The bracelet is not perfect but it is antique, and I would take the expertise of others butdo further research. Asian figures painted on stone are very desirable. Always do your homework first. Hope that this helps.

Oh, now reading what I wrote one more time, I made a mistake somewhere, I meant; " ... low Karat Silver..." meaning it is not Sterling
