I have this bracelet I can't figure out. The metal is very oxidized, was nearly black,,thought it was copper due to its darkness but it is silver in color and obviously has a high copper content judging by the darkness of the metal before polishing. The settings are what I am unsure of - they clink like glass - when you look at the backs, though, it looks poured, and at the same time, enameled - there are speckles in the surface along with a fingerprint in one of them. Does anyone know what this technique is? Thanks --

The first photo has a lowered exposure to show the texture of the back.

Maybe try researching "Russian Finift Enamel Bracelet". I think Finift items are a faux silver.

That was too easy - looks like that is what she is - thank you so much - just when you think you've seen it all you get one that stumps you.
