Gorgeous vintage bracelet in sterling silver and turquoise

A 7-inch bracelet of small carefully worked panels, each centred by a snake eye turquoise. Fastens with a simple but secure hook. The bracelet pays homage to Navajo design but was crafted in Mexico, between about 1948 and 1979, given the eagle hallmark. Marked Mexico and 925 and the eagle mark with 77, the last numbers indicating origin and/or maker. Great condition, with light patina.
