Description
Gorgeous antique early Art Deco 1920s hat pin, jabot or stick pin with deep green original early cushion cut paste rhinestones and early powdered type gold foil backs to the stones. Size is 4 1/2″ long. The head measures 1″ tall north to south by 3/4″ wide east to west. It was purchased from an estate several decades ago and is in original condition. You can see it is early Art Deco from the narrow thin prongs and thin simple bezel settings. Later rhinestone jewelry often had later cuts of stones and the settings were much more elaborate and bulky. It also has a long, very thin stick as you would expect from the 20s. The gold metal has a lot of age patina and age wear so it will need to be thoroughly cleaned and the very thin stick has metal wear to the color only. It is still functional and the large head is still strongly attached to the stick. Atop the head sits a very tiny glued in pearl which seems to be set and glued in its own silver colored metal mounting that has tiny 1920s millgrain work going around the edge. Great original antique Art Deco pin in glowing green for anyone who collects antique and vintage stick pins and hat pin collection. Or, clean, restore, repurpose etc…
