Is it likely this is Scottish gold?

Hello,
I recently picked this up with a similar bracelet. It tests at 10k gold but lacks hallmarks.
From looking around it seems the stones are Scottish agates and perhaps there may have been a time when the Scots were none to keen on marking some of there precious metals?
I was also wondering if perhaps it was marked on a jump ring or something that has been lost with time. The top where something like that would have been does seem to have a witness indent where it might have been.
If anyone has any thoughts or comments it would be much appreciated!
