I got this tiny 8 gram bracelet at the TS for $5. Is there a Colonial Williamsburg, VA makers mark? I see all these items for sale on Ebay, but I can't find any info on 925-1000.com. Let me know what you guys know or think about it. HH

Colonial Williamsburg has all types of master craftsmen that make all types of Colonial type reproductions from ceramics and glass to pewter and silver. Your bracelet appears to be something out of one of the gift shops there.

I used to live not far from there years ago. I've been there. This is a sort of generic marks that is used, others are IC, FS, JC. Others can be signed by the actual maker and are more expensive. Here is a few pieces on ebay with the same mark. Everyone of them says Colonial Williamsburg in reference to the CW mark. The locals even refer to Colonial Williamsburg as "CW". Rest assured, that is what the mark is. Your bracelet is a vintage one that dates to the the 60's, worth about $30 on ebay it looks like.
