Description

DATE: Victorian, c.1860

A cool and unusual Victorian stick pin... This is probably my favourite one yet! Its set with a carved Labradorite head, modelled as the Devil himself... The stone shimmers beautifully, with various shades of blue that form a striking contrast with the red ruby cabochon set eyes. It also makes him look kinda magical and/ or supernatural. It features lovely expressive detail, giving him a mischievous face, with enamel teeth and pointy gold horns. It dates from the Victorian period, circa 1860, modelled in 15 karat gold and complete with its fitted box.
