Late Victorian Extra Long Rhinestone Pavé Silver Hat Pin, 1890s

About the Item

A necessity during the Victorian Era, hat pins not only balanced precarious hats atop piles of hair but also moonlighted as weapons against overzealous gentlemen.

This extraordinary example features a ¾” pave rhinestone finial atop an extra long silver stem to create an accessory worthy of standing on its own. 10 ½” hat pin with silver stem; rhinestone pave finial inset with 18-5mm crystals. material: silver, crystals noteworthy: gently clean with damp cloth repairs: none condition: very good with light tarnish on gently curved stem measurements: length: 9 ¾” (stem), ½” (finial) finial diameter: ¾” signature: no signature present
