I think I read somewhere that it is a term used to describe items of silver where there are no hallmark signs.
I read somewhere else that Palladium is a white metal which is a bit like Platinum.
Anyone on here with any thoughts on the matter?

I found a bracelet which I thought was silver but have since heard it was white metal.
It is always possible it could have come from abroad or it was just because there were no visible markings.

It is possible it may have come from abroad but it had been lying forgotten in back of a drawer.
My Dad had relatives who were out in the Far East during World War II and possibly for some time after that.
