It is wide silver bangle, the mark I thought was Robbins? Can't really find any info about the Robbins Silversmiths, (no reference books unfortunately). Is this a unique mark?
Thank you in advance for your help.

Thanks for joining us in the Silver Salon Forums.

What makes you think your bangle was made by Robbins? Can you post photos of the bangle and the marks? This will make identification much easier.

The mark is a bit hard to make out. Looks like Pat. on first line which could stand for patented, but what is under that?

Who knows the question may come up again. The USPTO site has a Martin Rapaport with this trademark. It was registered in 2002. Rapaport, Martin INDIVIDUAL UNITED STATES 133 E.Warm Springs Road Las Vegas NEVADA 89119,live.

Martin Rapaport has at least one gemstone patent, but I don't think it is the number in this post. US Pat. D444096 - Filed Jun 2, 2000 - Martin Rapaport
