This Victorian sporting stick pin brooch is made of yellow gold with a round cabochon rock crystal panel. The circular crystal features a hand-painted reverse intaglio fox head motif in naturalistic tones against a pale background. The slender pin shaft displays a textured twisted metal finish and tapers down to a sharp point, connecting to a smooth bezel setting at the top. The piece measures 6.3 cm high and 1.2 cm wide. This antique accessory fits naturally into an English country house interior style as a decorative textile fastening or a traditional lapel adornment. Collectors can display the jewel within a cabinet or a dedicated pin collection case, bringing a touch of nineteenth-century equestrian heritage to a dressing table or study.

FAQs

An Essex crystal stick pin is a piece of antique jewellery featuring a clear rock crystal cabochon that has been carved from the reverse side and hand-painted to produce a three-dimensional image, mounted on a metal pin stem.

These items were crafted using natural rock crystal cabochons, fine watercolours or oils for the reverse painting, mother-of-pearl backing, and gold or silver mountings and pin stems.

Authentic pieces feature precise deep hand-carving on the flat back of a quartz crystal cabochon rather than moulded glass, detailed multi-layered painting, and traditional period settings in high-carat gold or silver.

Antique stick pins can be worn on suit lapels, secured to silk scarves or ties, fastened to hatbands, or clustered together on jacket collars as decorative accents.

Clean gently with a dry, soft microfibre cloth around the metal setting, avoiding immersion in water or chemical cleaners which can penetrate the backing and damage the reverse painting.
