<p>[QUOTE="Figtree3, post: 282956, member: 33"]I just came upon this thread. I own a brooch like this. And just got it out after reading this. I had never noticed that mine has P S CO on it as well. However, it does not look exactly like the one on Illusion Jewels site. And that site describes the mark as P. S. CO. (with periods after the letters). However, the image they show does not appear to have periods after the letters. I also notice that they image they show includes letters that are askew, not in a straight line. Because of that, I think looking further would be in order.</p><p><br /></p><p>Meanwhile, [USER=152]@tie.dye.cat[/USER] , yours appears to me to say P S followed perhaps by the letter C, but the last letter doesn't look like an O to me...</p><p><br /></p><p>Just FYI, I bought mine at an antique store about 5-7 years ago.
