Sterling Silver Stickpin of a Wild Boar

About the Item

Here piggy, piggy is not what you say to a wild boar unless it is an silver stickpin. It is very much like a wild boar appears in person.I have seen them them at close range. The stickpin is whimsical and full of character with its curlicue tail. Well sculpted and three dimensional, I have to remark about the quality of the work done on such a small size. The boar is in perfect condition. 3.75 inches long Weight 6.9 grams
