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.
