Russian Gold or Platinum Pin Brooch ?

[silversearcherz]

This has a Star in circle and small house in Hexagon 6 side stamp . It looks to have diamonds and a pearl on it .The Star mark can be seen on the second photo and house maybe seen on last photo .Very small marks and hard to take photos of. I tested this with iodine and it does not change color. I found the star mark on a page with Russian items.

Hi,
I think it`s not Russian (Soviet).
Embedded images of Soviet platinum and gold marks.


Very likely Spanish marks (pentagram in a circle and maker in hexagonal stamp).

Notice the Star inside circle mark 3279 .

Also the mark around the house is 6 sided but not a true hexagon shape with all sides same,it was made to outline a house mark that is taller than it is wide .

Hello again,
The anatomy of full Soviet set of marks is missing here.
Have it tested (there are non invasive electronic testers now).

Did you ever find out more about this? I have a ring, similar marking, large black pearl. Not testing positive for silver

Hi! I know it's been over a year or so that you posted about this brooch, but was there any definitive answer? I have the almost identical brooch to yours! It has a few more "stems" but it's the same construction, the exact same marks. This site is the only one I've found and I've been searching on and off for awhile I was so excited to find this! There are so many star in circle answers just wondering (also I think the other mark is for Austria for the crystals used)
Thank you! Tess
