I can’t help with the mark, but what a cool statement necklace!
Looks like moss agate…and are those pearls?

Thanks @Stracci ! Yes, moss agate and cultured pearls. I think of Ayn Rand when I look at the necklace (not associating that with the mark). I think it would be termed a Modernist piece. However, if there was an Industrialist jewelry period I think this would fit in there well.

Is it an abstract piece, or is that supposed to be like a little boot? Very interesting.

My initial impression was that it looks like an abstract of the state of South Carolina. Now I see the boot.

Looks Picasso inspired, mid-century modern to me.

Thanks everyone for your input. Mid-century abstract fits well. I figured the hallmark would be a long shot.

it also reminds me of some angular geometric 80s design. those eye-shaped forms are kinda PNW-ish, too. cool piece! i dig it.

that hallmark looks european to me for some reason but you’d expect there to be more if it was english.
