It's a very nice bracelet; locking clasped bracelet with a row of lapis, but I can't identify the markings.
What I assumed originally was a 925, under magnification says, I think, "STS," and underneath that, it looks like "Karls (Kaits? Kaifs? Kads?)." It's an elaborate bracelet, but it doesn't seem to be machine made, there's a bit of a mismatch in the grilling.
I may be overthinking it, but as I was searching I even wondered if it was another language, I'm fairly sure, from other angles, that it's not SVS or SYS, but I could be wrong, but if I'm looking at the STS upsidedown, it could be the Scandinavian SÅS, and the s is unusual in Russian, but Karls could be Капѕ, Калѕ, Кагтѕ, or Кадѕ, or maybe καπς in Greek, but I'm probably going too far in the wrong direction.
Please help identify markings on this bracelet "Karls?" "STS?"

Hi,
It's Karis. If you Google 'karis jewellery' you'll find several examples.
I note one seller states that STS is an Austin, Texas company and 'Karis' a brand name, but I cannot confirm that.

So far everything I've seen by Karis STS is "bonded" sterling silver or gold on brass.
