This is a silver pendant on a very long chain. Hand wrought. Has 2 marks on it. One I can't read at all and the other I can only really make out the last 4 letters. They appear to be ARIN or maybe ARIM the first 2 letters look like P or D and V or W. Hoping someones can figure it out for me. here's the pics of the pendant.

The entire pendant is very heavy silver and the little ball is gold colored.

identified!

Wow, I can't believe I got it. My son came over and had a look and said it looked like the name was Larin. Turns out it is. The piece is actually made and signed by Robert Larin and is a cast pewter with silverplate done in the lost wax process. If you google Robert Larin you can find out more info. Sweet!
