Beautiful set. Not sure who made it, but love the combo rhinestone and cabochon.

Do you think Weiss because of the W on the earring?
I looked for the +W+ makers mark, I couldn't find a connection to Weiss.
What I did find was this.

"Trayling and Waters. This firm was started in 1919 by Alex J. Waters. In the following year Waters took in Albert Joseph Trayling as a partner, but Trayling's health was not good so he retired and sold his interest to Waters in 1924. The firm never had a great interest in medallic work but in the 1920's was responsible for a great number of medals, particularly for lower mainland sporting groups. Their trade mark is +W+ (plus sign, W, plus sign). Their only jeweller's pieces are dated 1792, an allusion to the date that Capt. George Vancouver arrived at this coast to survey. Trayling & Waters were closed by the receivers on November 2, 1987."
