Here is a selection of D&E clamper bracelets.
There are no side hinged bracelets that do not have etching on them. D&E side hinged bracelets always have etching. Now not all side hinged etched bracelet are D&E but non-etched side hinged are for sure not D&E.
All D&E hinged bracelets frames meet evenly. If a bracelet does not meet evenly it is not D&E.
All D&E hinged bracelets the frames are made out of square wire. If yours has round wire it is not D&E.
