This is one of my very earliest treasures - I finagled it away from my mother when I was 7 years old. My father had given it to her some time prior to that, but she never wore it and thus my tiny little brain figured that it might as well go where it would be loved ... to me! But neither my mother or my father knows any more about it than I do: dad found it on 47th at an antiques dealer, thought it was pretty, and brought it home.
It''s a tear-drop shaped three-dimensional silver pendant formed of leaves that come down to meet a bezel holding a piece of stained glass patterned with green-centered, six-pointed white stars on a wine-red background. I''d say that it''s cast rather than fabricated, but aside from that, I''m stumped: the hallmarks appear to be three joined squares containing an anchor, a lion passant, and what''s either Roman numeral V, an upper-case V, or something else I''m just not making out (the stamp is a bit blurry).
Glitterata? JewelryMan? Help?
