Can you help me identifying these marks?
https://i.imgur.com/Qip55x9.jpg
Here is the image of the clutch of a bracelet that my grandmother received as a present from the very hands of Nicola II Romanov in 1917.
I would like to know if the bracelet that contains more than 30 diamonds, was probably made in st. Petersburg admin edit, I will. Post more photos of the whole jewel as soon as I succeed. Thanks

Re: Can you help me identifying these marks?
Here are the complete pictures of the jewel
The faberge museum of baden baden told me that this bracelet was made to celebrate the 300 years of the Romanov di nasty, you think it's a single piece or were made several of it?

Hi, welcome to the forum, please read our forum rules and embedded your images.
Your image shows a Russian so called four-element hallmark used 1908-1926 including the weight,core image, fineness, and assay office letter. This mark illustrates a weight numeral of 7 zolotniks ( 1 zolotnik = 4.266 grams) or 29.862 grams, followed by the national core image of the woman's head wearing a kokoshnik facing right, a two digit zolotnik standard of fineness 56 or 14K=58.33% pure gold, and a Greek letter that indicates the regional assay office, α Alpha for Saint Petersburg.

Thanks Peter, no trace of the maker? There's a little mark outside the 4mark,it's only scratches?
Re: Can you help me identifying these marks?

Hi,
Looks like Greek letter Alpha for St Petersburg (strange to be tilted, but we have seen that).
Seven zolotniki of pure gold calculated to 14 K. One zolotnik is 4,26 gram pure gold.
29g of 24k gold plus 20.74g of alloy mix.
The bracelet should be approximately 50 g. of 14k gold.
(The jetton is not 22 K but also 14 K).
Regards

Maker`s mark is lost, possibly due to friction.

Just one more remark.This medal was awarded with a suspension loop (ring) which was removed when the medal was transformed into a jetton and incorporated within a bracelet.
Imperial medals were not awarded in the form of a bracelet.

Re: Can you help me identifying these marks?
This probably because the bracelet has been a present to a woman, my grandmother, instead the medal I guess was awarded to a man. So they transformed the medal into a bracelet expressly to be given to a woman, my grandmother visited the court of Nicola II in 1917, she was a lyric singer and sang for the zarAG2012 wrote:Just one more remark.This medal was awarded with a suspension loop (ring) which was removed when the medal was transformed into a jetton and incorporated within a bracelet.
