is it a new piece ?
Have never seen one that was hinged, love it very much!
lovely hinged one.....you are right Marie ange, it quite rare!!
@AIT: no it is not, you can see the fes hallmark called "A la tour" which is pre 1925
thanks Ayis. i saw the tour Hallmark. nowadays, it is not enough to make the difference
Ait, do you think they copy old Hallmark to make new items look old?
Marie Ange. no i do not think that the Hallmark is coppied. for me it is not enough the presence of a hallmark when the ensembl not clear is. this bracelet could be cleaned , restaured. maybe was since long years in a showcase.
or just the light is not good on this photo.
the Hallmarks are not always a sign of authenticity ( for me, it is my own opinion and keep it for me )
We probably all have our own thoughts and demands when it comes to buying a piece, it is only good we differ from opinion otherwise we all would collect the same items.....
This bracelet belonged to my mother and was his wedding present 60 years ago and now belongs to my wife but I know nothing of its authenticity, this is all I can say about it.
Amghar. thank you. it is more than enough for me.
verry nice bracelet. what owns the family stays in the family. by the way. the family Amghar is originaly northafrican, from canaris ilands until lybia.
i have good friends from Algeria, benamghar
It is a very rare piece, I am glad your wife got it, does she wear it also?
