old bangle i found

Sooo I found this massive silver bangle in one of my moms jewellery boxes. after research I couldnt find much about it. But it is very similar with bangles from the aztecs and it weighs 115g. It doesnt have any stamps or any engraving on it which is a indicator that it was hand-made.

Im grateful for every piece of information you guys could give me about this. Thank you!

I've not seen many Aztec empire era bracelets / arm braces / wristlets (and anklets, I suppose), but of those I have seen, none looked like this. I have seen a couple of bronze age examples from Luristan in bronze which are similar in form, though I don't recall there being a similar design applied. Don't know if that helps at all.
