Silver Vintage Austrian Charivari Grandeln Lederhosen Octoberfest Hat Pin

About the Item

This curious Folk Art stick pin was probably worn by a man, in particular, a hunter, as a charm. They’re often found on the charm bracelets of hunters, known as ‘Charivari’, and were popular in Germany and Austria, so steeped in folklore and tradition. Grandeln is the German term for the canine teeth of deer. It is made of silver, marked 800. It is approximate 5/8" wide, 3/8" deep and 2 3/4" in length. I don't know the exact age, but it is probably 1900s or older. Found at an estate sale in Vienna, Austria.

  • 1925 Silver Austrian Charivari or Watch Chain Necklace with Hunting Charm Fobs
    Located in Haarlem, NL
    Late 19th-early 20th century silver Austrian charivari or watch chain necklace with Hunting charm fobs. Lovely piece of historic Austrian folkloristic jewellery, a real collector’s item this is. A charivari is a piece of traditional Bavarian costume jewellery; this one is made of solid silver. Bavarian men wear the charivari on the belt of their Lederhosen, women wear them as an apron tie or bodice closure. This piece is quite heavy and sturdy. The size of its shackles and the chain length tells me this actually is a men’s charivari. It traditionally served as jewellery or as a talisman for a successful hunt. The charivari originated from a watch chain, which was attached to the buttonhole of the costume shirt and was hung with various hunting trophies. It could not be bought, was carefully preserved and was passed down in a single family through the generations. This one is adorned with rare trinkets; a 1912 coin of the Austrian-Hungarian Emperor a silver male Dachshund charm a set of deer teeth in silver (aka Grandel or Gradln) a silver staggering horse fob...
