Description
We have recently acquired an extensive antique hatpin collection. In this auction we are offering for sale an exquisite RARE hatpin. Please look at the photos closely even though they do not do justice to this piece. It is marked sterling with the date letter for 1909 and made by Arthur Johnson Smith. This hatpin is 10" long and the top of the piece is just under 1-1/4" in dimensions. There is a woman's head wearing a hat carved out of some sort of black stone and very intricate detailing when you see it in person. The sterling around the woman's head was made specifically for this piece. PLEASE NOTE: There seems to be damage on the lower right side. I've enclosed two photos for you to judge. Unbelievable hatpin. Please see our other listings for additional items that we have for sale.
