Well, obviously I'm new here and didn't realize I'm years late. The mystery mark has been identified long ago! Please accept my apology, I've never been on a forum before.

Hi Jackieee,

Welcome to the Forum.

No apologies necessary. Your reminder will help others searching for the same answer.

We hope to hear more from you.

I'm submitting images from the Silpada magazine that clearly lists a pair of earrings that I have in my possession that is stamped with the Shube (Sb) hallmarks. Perhaps Silpada pieces were jobbed out to Shube and mistakes were made, but this may help explain some confusion around the Silpada maker mark, which I have only known to be the the arrowhead. I have a bracelet and matching earrings. I've acquired the earrings several times over and one pair no longer in my possession contained the Silpada mark. A pair I'm posting today contains the Shube hallmark. But, the matching bracelet, which I am also sharing here, but is not listed on the Silpada spread with the earrings, contains both the Shube and the Silpada hallmarks, which I have circled.

Hi all, it's been a LONG time since the thread was written, but in trying to research some stolen jewelry by George Schuler, I came across your posts. I am George Schuler's grand niece, and my mom, his neice would probably enjoy providing information about Uncle George, Preformed Parts, and other relevant information, should you still like to inquire. It brings me great joy to know that his pieces are still enjoyed and I believe he would be thrilled.
I'll be happy to share contact info privately through the admin if I could help in any way.
Smiles,
Nancy

I believe if you look up Dakota West Designs you'll find your mark is a match.I've purchase several items over the years with the same mark.

Hi! Your mark sounds like a Shubes Manufacturing or a Shubes Dakota West piece. I am looking for a clue to a piece I have and came across this thread and don’t see an update so if you haven’t found it yet, now you have!

I am Brand new here and don’t see a way to include a photo but you can look up “Shubes” and find a number of pieces to view showing the hallmark for comparison. 😊

I know this thread is old but just in case it has not already been said "this is a Shube Mfg. Company Hallmark. I've had Sterling pieces with the same Hallmark.
