Ideas on value?

I have what I think is a Sam Lovato amber brooch, with insect and other inclusions. I volunteer in the jewelry department of a local charity thrift shop and would be grateful for any input you might have on value. Info I found on mark was in Hougart’s 3d edition.

I’m afraid I’m not able to give you a value but I really like the pin. Will you please let me know it is going to be sold? Thanks

The jewelry manager had a waiting list for this one, and she sold it for $150.

That’s great. I knew it was nice. Glad you got a good price.

I’m happy you think it was a good price–you have a fabulous collection of jewelry and I learn a lot from you and the other regulars here!

I believe this is the mark for Dennis Smith. I saw it yesterday looking for another S.
From Hougart’s 4th Edition.

BUT WAIT!!! WHAT’S THIS…The same mark?

It does look more like the Dennis Smith mark to me. So close though! The arrows just lean a different way.
