Makers mark on 14kt white gold brooch

Hello. Is anyone familiar with this makers mark ? I’ve tried Google and researching jewelry marks but haven’t located anything. It’s a right facing arrow then 14KT which I assume is white gold. Bought it for $25… hoping it’s worth a bit more !! Thank you.

Obviously, I can't make a call from a photo...but as a Graduate Gemologist, I have a hunch that you "stole" a solid 14K white gold brooch with diamonds and fine Akoya cultured pearls.  I'd recommend taking it to a jeweler to confirm.

Sorry, can't help on the trademark...that's Silver's job! 😉

Oh wow thank you so much for the reply !! I will take it to my Jeweler tomorrow to confirm

😆🤣, Silver is a sick puppy unfortunately but I definitely agree with poster idealgems. I've seen that arrow before and I know it represents something. ( I know that doesn't make much sense) so I started to nose around. Found this Tiffany brooch, 14k diamond, pearl just like yours and this one has an arrow also. 

 

 Now, does this arrow have something to do with the pearls or the diamonds, I don't know.

     Karen please take this to a reputable jeweler and keep us posted here, OK? It's beautiful!

Oh wow !! I just came across this Tiffany one on eBay. Granted it has twice the diamonds but look at that mark !!

I was looking at the back rim of the piece and there is some sort of mark here along with two tiny dents in it. Could it be a Tiffany with a bad mark ? I see some Diamond hearts that have the 14 KT arrow on the pin with the Tiffany & Co on the rim

Good sleuthing Karen! My link was also a Tiffany brooch but the arrow was after the 14k mark, hmmmm.

Your link listing does invite any questions to their listed item, drop that seller a message about this arrow makersmark and if indeed it represents Tiffany, you can also include photos of your brooch.

Why not, it's worth a try. Thanks for letting us know, Silver

My jewelry confirmed the diamonds and akoya pearls. No idea of the maker though….sigh

Remember,  there is no bad Tiffany mark, if it's bad, it's fake.
