    I need help in determing the maker of this piece. It's stamped on the back "R.B." and "925". The people in the middle tested positive for 14K but I'm not sure if it's 14K overlaying the sterling. It's a older piece that's both pin or pendant and hollow in the heart. It was a flea market find so I don't have any history. It measures about 2 1/2" both ways if that helps.

    I cannot locate anyone that did this style of work with the initials R.B.

    Does anyone have ideas?

      A jeweler should be able to tell you if it's gold overlay or solid gold. Not possible to determine that from photos.

      Thanks for responding. I'd just like to know any thoughts on the designer "R.B."
