Finest Antique Niello? Hatpin Asian Stylized Crane Gold? Brass? Uncut 11” Total. This is one of the most amazing hatpins I have ever owned. The FINEST of work/detail. Looks like either Gold or Brass but untested as I didn’t want to damage. Overall 11”-Pin portion 10.5”. Pin has some “ pitting” but appears never cut down, nice and long. The top portion features a stylized Crane/bird. With the most amazing detail and background of “feathers/ferns”. Truly amazing. I think it might be Asian. Small “ mark “ under top, again I would not touch. My pictures do not do this justice! This is a recent LUCKY find, very difficult to sell as I’ve been collecting hatpins (and everything!) for over 50 years. ( I will eventually sell my amazing collection, so please keep an eye out. ) This could be the star of YOUR collection. Please feel free to ask questions. All my items are vintage or antique with any wear from age and sold as is, no returns. Thanks
