Mystery Silver Flower Bracelet Chinese? Maker Mark? Sterling? Help please

Hello everyone thanks for being here I have this silver bracket that is very nice and has an etched flower design. What I need help with is the maker mark is it Chinese? Is it saying it is sterling or other silver alloy? I’m just confused is it even Chinese characters at all this is out of my league does anyone recognize the mark or know what it says? Thanks in advance

I appreciate your effort but it still is not translating well. Been looking and ran across several similar cuffs like yours, all roads lead to a Navajo design.

     Now, have you had this tested for sterling? Any local pawn shop will do it for you if you don't have a kit.

     Keep in mind that pieces like this coming from China or Thailand are often copied for their design and will stamp strange things on the piece that won't translate. 

     Here is just an example of one of the pieces I ran across.

It’s not sterling so I think it’s safe to say it’s a silver tone knock off of sorts thanks a lot appreciate you !

For the description:

     Cuff bracelet measures xxxxx, has a Asian influence in design and marks and is a Silvertone base metal.

 

     Price: $15-22
