They are all stamped "925" and marked by the artisan along with "Taxco, Mexico." These bangles do not have a clasp as they are meant to slide over your hand for wear.

Stamp Marks/ Maker's Mark: By regulation of the Mexican Government, marks are always placed on silver to convey the authenticity and quality of the silver to jewelers and dealers.c.1948-1979 the "eagle mark" or maker's mark was used to make known the manufacturer of the item. The particular mark on this item denotes the artist. These bangles are stamped with a simple line eagle head as seen in photos. For reference, this artisan mark is similar to Plateria Alameda, Plater Solis, and Plamex marks, but not identical.925 is the silver fineness. This is the most common type of silver used in jewelry due to its durability. The higher the number, the softer the silver will be (ie; 950 has fewer additional metal mixed in and is therefor softer). Taxco, Mexico is the location the item was manufactured.
