This bracelet looks as if it might be related to a necklace in the April 2009 catalog of Gabriel Gibson Decorative Arts. See page 5, #152, Mexican Hand-Wrought Silver and Agate Art Deco Necklace, 1930s. The catalog notes, “J P the silver artist is listed in the book, The Little Book of Mexican Silver Trade and Hallmarks, (2006 edition) by Bille Hougart, page 220.”
Speaking of Bill Hougart, Amazon.com has a page for him that includes a short bio. No one has started any discussions (yet) in the Bille Hougart forum there. If you don’t yet have his book, you can get it at Amazon.com.
