Antique Old Cut Diamond and Enamel Stick Pin of a Pheasant, c. 1875

About the Item

Antique old cut diamond and multi color enamel stickpin, c. 1875. Approximately 26 rose and old cut diamonds are set in silver. The head of the pheasant is blue, yellow, red and green enamel and 18K. The continental silver, approximately 800, is backed with the approximately 18K yellow gold. The pin of the stickpin is approximately 14K, no doubt used for the strength of 14K over 18K. This pin is totally 2 9/16th inches in length and the pheasant is very nearly 1 1/8th inches in length. The piece bears no marks, but has been tested to confirm its gold and silver content. Stickpins were worn vertically by gentlemen in their ties or lapel. The top or head of the stickpin should only be visible. One would usually wear a stickpin clutch at the bottom to hold the piece in place. All items sold are accompanied by a detailed appraisal by our gemologist, as well as all original GIA certificates, if specified in listing. As always, we guarantee all of pieces. Each piece of jewelry arrives in a finely gift-wrapped presentation box. We have made every attempt to photograph our jewelry with the proper lighting conditions to display our pieces as they are in real life. However no amount of effort on our end can give the reader realistic colors if the receiving systems is imprecise. For realism in color, "It takes two to tango". We have also photographed our pieces on different colors to give our viewers as much information needed to make a good decision. If questions arise that we have not addressed here, please do not hesitate to contact us. Unless stated otherwise or as exactly, all weights, grades and metal content of our pieces are approximated by our Gemologist using both GIA Instruments as well as instruments used as a standard and proper practice used in our industry. Over the decades of our stewardship as a small but exemplary purveyor of the jeweler's art, we have strived to offer a fine and authentic selection, in excellent condition, of collectible jewels from all highly sought time periods at competitive prices and even lower prices, if possible. In the process we have had the extraordinary good fortune of meeting remarkable people - some collectors, others just extremely interesting individuals who have taken the time and effort to examine their lives and select things that tend to make them smile, or admire, or just wonder at the exciting endlessly creative and nuanced panoply of jeweled artifacts.
