Help identifying found pin

Hello,
I found this pin while renovating my 123 year old home. Any idea which organization this belongs to? I haven't been able to find any answers on Google image.

Such a unique design!



Where in the US do you live?



Back in the 1910's and 1920's High School Fraternities/Sororities were popular. Perhaps your local town or county school had that group back then.



There may be a record of such a group in a local or county library's old high school yearbook collection; or even your local high school with a long history may have old yearbooks with answers.



(P.S. I'm not an expert, but have read multiple Badge Threads thru the years here on GC.)

When I was in HS in the 60s here in Birmingham, AL, high school sororities and fraternities were very popular. I'd ask around in you neighborhood/town

What a cool pin! I went through the NPC manual and couldn't find anything. I hope its origin can be found!

One further location with possible information would be any type of City/County/Town Historic Museum. They sometimes have elder volunteers who may be familiar with your item, or know of other people in your community with further knowledge concerning said piece.

Sans available/knowledgeable volunteers, you may be allowed to utilize its collection of materials to investigate your piece on your own.
