.925 Silver

Has anyone encountered a piece of silver jewelry stamped 1000? I recently found a bracelet marked 1000 and believe it to be made of "Pure" silver, it is very bendable, and found very similar examples on the internet, also stamped 1000, but no country of origin? I realize Fine silver is 99.9, but the 1000 might be customary from whatever country it originated from? Any thoughts or infro?

Check out Online Encyclopedia of Silver Marks, Hallmarks & Makers' Marks. The only area I found a reference to "1000" shows it's from Japan.

Thank you for your reply SD, I did find that site earlier, all things considered, I will say that I detected a "First" for me, a "99.9" percent silver bracelet. Again Thank you SD, not a whole lot on the web in regards to a 1000 stamp. The only other that was interesting was that when I typed in "Silver bracelet marked 1000", pictures came up for "Images for silver bracelet marked 1000" and the 2nd picture is a bracelet of the same type & style, just a little different, but no further information.
