Victorian 14K Yellow Gold Etruscan Revival Hat Pin 19th Century

Presented is an ornate, 14 karat yellow gold hat pin. This Etruscan Revival style piece was made in the second half of the 1800s. The top is in the form of a ball and is decorated with applied, twisted gold wire pieces. The shaft is gold plated, as is typical of these pieces because solid gold would be too malleable for the strong stick part.

Although this piece is not marked, it has been tested with nitric acid and is guaranteed to be 14 karat purity. Only the round head is 14k gold.

This old piece is in excellent condition. There are no dents, no breaks, no splits and no repairs. 

The pin measures 5 7/8 inches long.
