A WORD ABOUT THE CARVED MASK TAXCO BRACELETS-THESE BRACELETS WHEN NEW ALL HAD LITTLE SILVER BALLS AS EARRINGS ON THE MASKS. SINCE THESE ITEMS WERE MADE IN THE 1940's

50's & 60's THEY HAVE BEEN AROUND AND MOST HAVE BEEN WORN QUITE A BIT. I HAVE NEVER AQUIRED ONE YET THAT HAD ALL OF THE EARRINGS PRESENT BUT HAVE HAD A FEW WITH NONE. ON THE AVERAGE THEY USUALLY HAVE ABOUT HALF OF THE EARRINGS INTACT. SORRY.
