Antique 14K Gold Double Cravat Pin – Enamel, Seed Pearl and Safety Chain – 19th Century A beautiful and unusual antique double cravat pin, crafted in 14-carat gold (585/1000) and decorated with exquisite multicoloured enamelwork and a delicate seed pearl. This elegant piece consists of two slender gold pins of different lengths, each surmounted by a finely decorated, egg-shaped ornament. Both pins are connected by a decorative safety chain. Design and decoration The larger pin features a magnificent egg-shaped finial, richly decorated with deep red, cobalt blue, emerald green and white enamel, enhanced by intricate gold-coloured geometric and foliate patterns. A delicate seed pearl crowns the larger ornament, adding a refined finishing touch. The smaller pin features a matching enamelled finial, predominantly decorated in shades of blue, with gold-coloured detailing. The fine enamelwork and miniature egg-shaped ornaments give this piece a particularly sophisticated and distinctive appearance. History and period Double cravat pins were fashionable gentlemen's accessories during the 19th century, particularly in the Victorian era. They were worn to secure and decorate a cravat, necktie or scarf. The two pins were connected by a chain, serving both a decorative and practical purpose. Similar double cravat pins dating from the 19th century can be found in important historical jewellery collections, including the British Museum. The colourful enamelwork and ornamental egg-shaped finials show stylistic influences associated with European and Eastern European jewellery traditions. The exact country of manufacture and maker remain unidentified. Gold and hallmarks The piece bears hallmarks which have not yet been identified. The gold has been tested and confirmed as 14 carat (585/1000).
