Beautiful Signed Maria Belen Nielsen Mexican Sterling Silver 7" Bracelet

Description

This is a Beautiful Signed Maria Belen Nielsen Mexican Sterling Silver 7" Bracelet.
This striking bracelet is an estate item we purchased some years ago.  I thought the graceful links were reminiscent of curled ocean waves, but I do not know whether that was the designer's intent.
We initially had no information on the silversmith who made this piece but a knowledgeable ebayer kindly took the time to let me know that this piece has the mark of Maria
Belen Nielsen, "who opened a store in Taxco approximately 15 years ago and had some of the finest silversmiths in all of Taxco producing pieces for her. She moved her store to San Miguel de Allende about 5 years ago, but I'm not sure it survived the pandemic. This bracelet is no more than 10 years old when she began marking the pieces she sold with this stamp."  The help with the correct attribution for this piece is very much appreciated.
The 7" bracelet with very sturdy, flat hook and eye clasp has links with maximum dimensions of 1 3/8" long x 3/4" wide. The link size relative to a US dime and quarter, and the length along a ruler, is shown in a pair of photos.  The bracelet weighs 32.33 grams, more than one Troy ounce of sterling silver, and it has a nice heavy feel.
At the time of this listing we will also be listing some other signed Mexican pieces, mainly signed / marked sterling that are estate pieces we have not previously offered for sale.  These will include brooches, earrings, bracelets, pendants, belt buckles, money clip, and miniature perfumes and perfume pendants.
Condition
The bracelet is in excellent condition.  I gave it a light polish with a jeweler's cloth leaving the patina much the same as when we purchased it.
