Antique 18K Gold Rock Crystal Royal Highland Yacht Club Intaglio Stick Pin
About the Item
An antique rock crystal, and yellow gold stick pin, comprising one round rock crystal cabochon, backed with mother of pearl, set in 18 karat yellow gold, with 10 karat yellow gold pin.
This stick pin features a circular, domed cabochon of rock crystal (colourless quartz) which has been carved and reversed painted with the burgee of the Royal Highland Yacht Club. The burgee flag is picked out in blue and white, with a golden crown at its centre. The flag is wonderfully shaded, giving it movement, as if it were rippling in the wind. The cabochon is backed with a shimmering mother of pearl panel, and is encase in buttery, sumptuous yellow gold. Etruscan revival twisted rope details add opulent detail, framing the subject perfectly. The head of the pin sports a bloomed finish, where the piece is dipped in a solution which removes the alloys from the gold, leaving a fine layer of pure gold. The stick pin is complete with a yellow gold pin. The stick pin is in good condition, with little to no wear to the cabochon. The pin has been reattached at some point, as there is a small amount of lead solder present. Wear and tear acquiescent with age.
The Royal Highland Yacht Club was founded in 1881, and in 1882 the club held the first West Highland Yachting Week. It is possible that this pin was presented to one of the founders or was made to commemorate the inaugural West Highland Yachting Week and perhaps presented to a winner.
The head of the pin measures 19.1mm wide, and 7.5mm deep (excluding pin). The pin measures 1.5mm wide, and the stick pin measures 71mm long overall.
Gross weight: 6.5g
Hallmarks: none, head of pin tests as approximately 18 karat yellow gold, pin tests as approximately 10 karat yellow gold, circa 1890
Your stick pin will be placed in its original antique box, with wine-red velvet and silk interior, and brown leather and gold tooled outer.
