A fabulous old pin going back to the early part of the 1900s, Fred Harvey era but better quality than most of that, with great hand sawtooth stamping and a round piece of gorgeous natural turquoise. Arrow pins are timeless and this is one of the best I’ve seen with uniquely stunning stamp work and magnificent natural turquoise. It has a working locking clasp mechanism. The pin is 2-1/8″ long and 5/8″ high, weighing 4.7 grams, the turquoise approximately 3/16 in diameter. It comes from an important private collection. The work on this pin is truly exceptional. As is usual for that period it isn’t signed by the artist nor marked for silver content but it’s sterling silver and was made by a masterful silversmith. There is a trader’s price code engraved on the back which is XV. It is one of the most collectible, hand stamped elegantly designed pieces, it is in excellent vintage, wearable and collectible condition. You won’t find this great piece in the mass production of the Fred Harvey pieces. It is beautiful and hand made. Be sure to add me to your favorites list. Take a look at my store.
