Hi, I just purchased this lovely set and think it's by Antonio Pineda. The marks vary on the different pieces with only one earring having the mark that I believe is for Antonio Pineda. I would like to verify that others agree it's Antonio Pineda's work. Second, should I polish it? The earrings were converted to posts however the original screwbacks are there so that can be reversed with no damage done.
Thank you, Darlene

The mark is AE inside a heart shaped M, not the Pineda mark.
It's sometimes found on Rancho Alegre and Estela Popowski pieces but I believe they also have their marks, not just the AEM.
I've found it on many diverse items, makes me think it's a shop mark, not a maker.
