18k & Tourmaline Stickpin with Flower Motif, Marks

Here is a very pretty stickpin! It features a nicely colored green tourmaline, not too dark (as they often are), set in 18k gold. The stone is cut in an older style, and is in good condition. It measures ¼” in diameter. Above it is a finely-detailed 5-petaled flower with 2 leaves, all in gold. The decoration measures 7/16”, and the whole thing 2-5/8”. It has 2 marks on the pin. One mark looks like “P star G”, the other like a pelican with a “G” below it. I haven’t managed to track down these marks yet. I was told it is French, but the eagle mark is not present; on the other hand, the maker's mark is consistent with the French style. It is in excellent condition, and circa 1900.
