Found at old church site. Missing a few stones and whatever was in the center picture or larger stone/glass. Very fancy . I think it's silver plate but it's very tarnished. I guess it's worth cleaning up further

I think once you’ve cleaned it up, you’ll see that the rough area at 6 o’clock on the reverse is actually a ‘Coro’ trademark:

The mark was registered on 11th February 1947 and expired on 17th November 2007 after failure to renew.

It seems to be a vintage ‘Coro’ item that has fallen apart and lost its cameo and faux pearl surround. Like this:

The "Coro" only was used from 1919-1937

Where did your information come from?

The pendant I linked to, which is a match for yours, has the 'Coro' in script within a box together with the flying pegasus. That mark was registered in 1947 and expired in 2007, as I said. Here's the US Patent and Trademark Office record:

They used other styles of mark at different times.

  • Corocraft and the crown: Corocraft, a higher-end line of Coro jewelry, often featured the Coro name in script with the word "Craft" in block letters, and sometimes included a small pegasus symbol or crown alongside or within the mark. Some pieces in the Corocraft line were made of sterling silver with a gold plate, especially during and after World War II.

I didn't see the Pegasus until now I was going off this other info, apparently I'm not correct after what you sent
 
Thanks, I really wish I could find some complete old jewelry. Maybe one day. Always missing something
