That glorious dress pin is an Eisenburg Ice I picked up at a swap meet. The glitter of the stones caught my eye I saw it was signed on the back though hard to tell what it said only that it ended with "burg" and said "Sterling" I figured if anything I could turn around and sell it. After figuring out it said Eisenburg I went hunting online for information.

A snippet: silver pieces made from 1943 to 1948 were called "Eisenberg Sterling"
They were created because the regular metal used was needed for the war so the company switched to sterling during that time.
Well I'm obviously not selling it I'm wearing it.
