I have been looking for information on this halmark, and cannot come up with anything, Its stamp reads, JOY. SN. ANTONIO GUAT then bellow it reads, 900 14k, the stamp is located on the outside of the hinge. i do not know who the man in the picture is but it may help in finding the country of origin. thank you for the help.
p.s. sorry i could not get a clear picture of the stamp

Country of origin would be Guatemala, the retailer's full name is probably Joyeria San Antonio (trans. San Antonio Jewelry Store). Hope this helps.

Second half twentieth century - at a guess. That's as accurate as I can be, there is little documentation on this type of silver.
