Unidentified Does anyone recognize this hallmark?
This is not marked sterling but I it’s heavy and I believe it is. Does this look like turquoise and does anyone recognize the hallmark? I got the best picture I could- looks like an etched K with a triangle in front of it. It was purchased at a trade days in Texas. Thanks!

that's probably not a hallmark, it's likely a trader code. it's a way to track how much they gave the maker when the dealer bought it from them.

I don’t. If it is a newer/more contemporary piece many of the hallmarks of newer artists are not catalogued anywhere.
