Antique Stick Pin Sherry Topaz Victorian Gold

Price $45

"This charming Victorian Art Nouveau Bohemian Sherry Topaz stick pin is very unique! The oval brilliant cut Topaz gemstone, not glass, is mounted in an old swag patterned stamped metal setting that is 14 kt gold filled and painted in 14 kt gold paint. The Sherry Brown Topaz is the most desirable of all Topaz colors, and this one has excellent clarity. Under high magnification, I do detect some natural inclusions in the stone but none that can be seen with the naked eye. The edges of the bevel cuts on the stone have wear from handing over time. The bar is very stiff and is made of brass that was gold painted. The head is 3/4"" tall x 5/8"" wide. The pin is 2 1/2"" long overall. Truly, a very gorgeous old one ! "
