I used to own a necklace with the same mark. Like others who have commented, I experienced difficulty in finding information on that mark. But finally, I discovered the manufacturer!
I wish I could remember the name, but I will never forget the mark.
The company is a modern-day company that reproduces Art Deco jewelry. Their reproductions are very fine, but nonetheless, they are reproductions.

I have a similar pair of earrings by: Anonymous
Hi Karen- I also have some earrings with the sideways H next to STERLING. Mine are pierced with lapis and onyx. The lapis is a small inlaid rectangle sitting vertically just below the post, then there is a slightly larger silver rectangle under that with two vertical rows of prong set marcasites and under all of that is a rectangular onyx. About 1" long.
There is enough fancy silverwork that they don't look new, they look like Fahrner but without the correct hallmark. Have you found out anything else? Do these sound like yours? Lynn

Ear Ring Findings Provide Dating Clues | Expert Appraisal by: Anonymous
Good Morning Karen!
this is exactly why I prefer to see photos.
The ear ring finding? Do you know what style of ear ring finding Karen? The expert will be able to tell from the images, so don't be too concerned if you are not sure. This will also help in pinning down a date.
MARCASITE (trade name for Pyrite) was popular from the 18th century onwards. Karen, you might like to consider having an appraisal carried out for these ear rings. This way you will also know their value.
Even from this one image, we feel, these ear rings more than qualify for an expert's appraisal. Visitors, send through images (attached in an email) to the address that will be provided to our appraisal department, after ordering your Jewelry Appraisal.
The Jewelry Appraisal form can be found HERE. It is an easy and straightforward process.
Best Wishes,

"H" Sterling Jewelry Maker's Mark by: Anonymous
Hello Rebecca, The item with the "H" mark that I wrote in about is a pair of earrings. I don't know any history as I bought them from a dealer. I guess I should have included a photo of the front. I will see if I can figure out how to add another photo. Thank you for your reply, Karen

More Info / History by: Anonymous
Hi Karen
do you know anything about the history of this lovely old sterling silver bracelet? From the reverse it looks like it could be an antique silver bracelet, the marks are quite hard to see, aren't they? Do you know where the piece originated? Can you describe the clasp? Thanks
