And with their infinite variety of themes, styles and stones make the most exciting collections.
They also look lovely on a tie or on a hat
This stickpin is really rare.
It shows a snake eating a ruby!
One can even see the animal's tongue sticking out!
Made of 14kt gold, this refined piece is hallmarked at the back, and the (small ) ruby is also genuine.
Very difficult to date this beauty. 30s/40s but also possibly as far as the early 50s.
A rare and fun collectible that will also make a precious gift. A small miniature world, antique stickpins make wonderful collections, gathered in a small vase or stuck in a pin cushion. There are so many shapes and themes and so many different stones!
Please check my other stickpins, all solid gold, as they all have a very different character.
MEASUREMENTS: Length of pin: 2 1/8" Width of snake: 1/2" Height: 3/8"
CONDITION: Excellent. No flaws to the ruby, even with a magnifying glass.
