Sterling pin with mystery mark help please :-)

[mforjan]

Hi joolies,

I was wondering if anyone has seen this mark before. It looks like a man holding and kissing someone, I've never seen anything like it.

The pin is also marked "STERLING" on the back.

Thanks for any help

Good Morning, I believe that's St. Joseph.   Ran a quick image search on "flower brooch st. joseph mark" and saw a similar one  🙂

Those being Lilies I remember this has been ID'd previously.

I hope the person who previously posted is an active member now.

WOW! You guys are good! Thank you so much for the help 

rocko23, I did the same search just now and there is one for sale on the Red Road. It isn't as well made (the pin back on mine is better) and mine is definitely sterling. But it is exactly the same design and same mark.

You guys are the best!

I agree! Really a crack team here!  I'm often amazed at the knowledge, memory (!), research and helpfulness. This board and also the PGP board (with overlap members) are awesome.
