No other information has ever come to light about the H&SO pieces, but they are from the 1920s-30s . Also, based on sales prices on eBay, they really are quite valuable. Definitely something to keep and cherish.

Based on ValkyrieVixen's post above, there is one other important clue to mention. The Womens Wear Daily article from 1930 indicates that Fishel-Nessler Co. of New York was annoucing or publicizing art deco pieces with this same hallmark. Since I have now seen numerous enamel pieces with this E in a...

Thank you for your information. The dates are tough to match since my piece was made in the 1930's and you trademark infomration was registered in 2003. But perhaps there is a famil connection of some sort, so I will pursue it a ways ans see where it leads. Thank you again.

I have hunted and hunted for information on “H&S O”. Any help? The initials make me think the jewelry company was founded by 2 brothers. This is an extra chucky thick sterling bracelet, most certainly from the US. It looks like a flapper bracelet from the 1920s-30s based on the open arrow back a...

On each of the 3 green enamel mosaic panels there is an “E” inside a box next to the words Sterling. The silver work is surprising in that even the large jump rings have designs on them. I have seen one Eisenberg pendant with an enamel tile mosaic motif, but just don’t know if they made this piece. ...

My lovely bracelet that has all the characteristics of being Scandinavian, but I do not know the maker’s mark. The piece is robin egg shell blue enamel color, so common to many Norway pieces. It has a light gold vermeil finish, and a clasp that looks typically Norwegian or Danish. In short many typi...

You say there is a virus in these files? I just downloaded them from my camera onto my computer. Then uploaded them into the image hosting site. If there is a virus, it had to be added at ImageHost.org. Thank you.

I have a lovely pin from Portugal with hallmarks that need some explanation. In particular there is a hallmark that looks like an open hand with three fingers up and the thumb across the palm. I have seen this particular stamp now on 2-3 other vintage pieces from Portugal. Possibly this represents t...

I'll try that. Thank you very much!

I believe this is an American brooch. Perhaps the A.C. stands for Alice Caviness? I am not sure, and was hoping anyone out there may know more about this vermeil brooch with the handpainted dot flowers. http://h.imagehost.org/t/0438/ACBack.jpg http://h.imagehost.org/t/0851/ACFront.jpg .

This is an interesting sterling brooch, and I need help figuring out the country it comes from. In addition to the Letter?, Crown, and Horse, it is marked 925. But what makes it interesting is that the large center portion of the pin spins so that it is jet black on one side, but if you open the pin...

If I turn it sideways then I see the "Re". Thank you! That will give me more to go on. I appreciate it! If I find out anything more I will opost it back to you.

My sterling bracelet is massive and lovely with black enameling and marcasites. About 128 grams. But I cannot figure out the maker’s mark. It almost looks like a flower or a rose vine? It also looks like it only partially there with prehaps the upper left portion of the stamp missing? Not sure at al...

This filigree flower pin was tarnished almost black, but cleaned up well to show a bright gold vermeil finish. Then I noticed a stamp that I cannot figure out. The stamp is on the front of the piece instead of the back, which is also unusual. Any help would be greatly appreciated. http://g.imagehost...

Very helpful JAKJO! Based on what you gave me I looked at additional information. I can now assume the import city was London and the date was 1982. Not sure who DB is but maybe the importer. Thank you very much.

I have a David Andersen piece and was hoping you could help me. It is a large butterfly and on of the antennae are a series of very tiny stamps. Briefly the stamps are: probably DB in a square, 925 in an oval (this of course stands for sterling), what looks to be a circle with 4 radiating stick arms...

I believe my parrot is a Sheffield England piece. Is this correct? But the date stamp does not look like ones on the forum database. Any help is kindly appreciated.

I have a lovely old pink enamel and sterling butterfly pin. There is a small hallmark on the back. It appears to be a letter in a triangle. Possibly an H or R or even a K. There may be a period or a much smaller letter after this main letter, but it is too hard to tell exactly what it is. Someone to...

I have several sterling conchos on a leather hatband, but have been unable to determine the maker. The conchos are in the form of a Texas Ranger star. The stamp is distinctive but has no name or initials. Can anyone help? Thank you kindly. http://g.imagehost.org/t/0664/StarBack.jpg http://g.imagehos...

This is 61-63 years old and was purchased in Phoenix, and also includes a keeper and tip. It looks to be made by a Mexican craftsman. Any help in identifying the hallmark? Thank you kindly. http://www1.filehost.to/files/2007-06-13_03/215952_buckle3.jpg" onclick="window.open(this.href);retu...
