Antique 15 carat gold safety pin. This useful piece is crafted from 1.25 mm round wire which is shaped into a stock pin. The sharp pointed tip tucks in, securing it. Both ends of this pin are more open which is very convenient if you should wish to use to just give your chain a bit an extension. It can also be used as a brooch, shawl pin, tie clip, collar pin, the list goes on! Circa late 19th century, British in origin.

In very good condition. This pin has a deep catch which makes it slightly difficult to open one handed...but very safe to wear! We don't often find these in 15ct gold so I'm quite pleased!
