we really need to see pictures of them.

They made all kinds of items during the years.  They did make some silver plated items but also made white metal pieces (which isn't silver).  They also made some pewter pieces.

Looking at that bottom could be silver plate over copper base !! This was a quite common method of making them back the early 1900`s !!

Homan worked in electroplate and silverplate.

I have found many silver pieces but not jewelry. I think they would consider this repousse.
