Calling all sleuths

I've been trying to research the maker of this swan pin. I can make out a partial stamp for sterling, and there are a few faint marks next to it, but they're too far gone. I thought it might be Trifari or Coro but didn't see it pictured on the Trademarks site. Does anyone recognize this swan? Thanks for any help!

Are you able to provide a higher res photo of the mark?

I used a clip on macro lens on my cellphone after trying for a clearer shot with my Nikon Coolpix. Not sure if I can do better. I'll try a few more.

Re: Calling all sleuths

Thanks. I did throw your original image into photoshop and reversed the colors and adjusted the contrast which helped, but it was still too low res to make out. If you can up the resolution then I can probably help with that image - even if I can't ID it, it may help someone else to recognize it based on a partial word. 🙂

Nothing here either Dream, sorry.

 

Though the beauty may be in the butterfly, the struggle and growth occur in the cocoon.

Re: Calling all sleuths

Looks to me like a poorly stamped Sterling. I see terli. Missing the front S and the back ng.

Yes, that's about all I can make out. Thanks for looking!
