What type of metal would you say this is?

Hi! I bought this piece from eBay as I liked the design for my partner and it was listed as a Courts & Hackett piece. It couldn't be verified as Courts & Hackett (no branding just a story that it was a handmade gift for a family member and I couldn't verify via a Google search, but this was reflected in the price) nor verified as sterling silver (no metal branding either but could be because it was a gifted piece?).

I've picked it up today and it's weighty (54g) but has a slight metal smell. I tested with a magnet and there was no strong attraction (a very, very small pull). It's also slightly tarnished and has marks that weren't on the listing pictures. What do you think?

(My pics have my fingers in and the eBay listing has the stone)

It looks like iron

Possibly pewter?
