FAQs

Essex crystal pieces feature a design carved into the back of a domed rock crystal and hand-painted, creating an optical illusion of a three-dimensional image when viewed from the front.

Antique tie pins generally feature metals such as gold or silver for the pin stem and mount, combined with gemstones, enamel, glass, or carved rock crystal for the decorative head.

Authentic pieces exhibit fine, miniature hand-painting on the concave reverse of bevelled rock crystal, often mounted in 9ct or 15ct gold without modern synthetic adhesives.

Vintage stick pins can be secured through the lapel of a tailored blazer, used to fasten a scarf, or worn as a decorative accent on a knitted cardigan or hat.

Clean gently using a soft, lint-free cloth and mild soapy water, avoiding harsh chemical dips or ultrasonic cleaners which can damage delicate reverse-painted details.
