Subject:Good Afternoon Everyone! . I Need your Help With Translation of This Mark. Thank You!
Posted By: carol Sat, Apr 30, 2022 IP: 2603:7000:733f:cf1:d
Good afternoon, I hope all is well with you and your families. I just got this bracelet and I think it might be Chinese export, but not sure because of the marking that I can’t read. I am hoping some will be able to help me with it and any history of this piece. Thank you all in advance, I sincerely appreciate your help. Stay safe

The last photo is upside down. Corrected 180 degrees, the right side stamp reads fine silver.

The left makers mark looks to be that of silversmith Li Sheng. Operated in Chengdu, Sichuan Provence (c1890 - 1940).
