Art Deco Horse Stickpin

Equestrian!
Beautifully designed stickpin of an energetic, alert horse.  A small red stone (likely a garnet) is set in the eye.  Crafted in 14kt gold,  circa 1925.

During the mid Victorian period (circa 1860) through the 1920s, equestrian and hunt-related jewelry were all the rage.  The dramatic, richly detailed design of the horse suggests this stickpin was created during the Art Deco era of the 1920s and 1930s.

The reverse of the stickpin (pictured below) is beautifully crafted.  The pin is attached to the solid gold back with a sturdy collet.  The reverse is stamped "14K" for the purity of the gold.  An unidentified maker's mark is visible just above the gold purity mark.

Cost:  $375

Measurements:  This 14kt gold stickpin is  2 7/16" long and weighs 1.8 grams.  The top measures  1/2" by  just under 5/8".
