Art Nouveau era horn hair pin set with a 9 carat rose gold top
The Art Nouveau period of the late 19th Century until the early part of the 20th Century resulted in many designs being very flowing and sensual, and here is a lovely Art Nouveau era horn hair pin set with a 9 carat rose gold top. Measuring 12cm in length, the top section is made in a very elegant flowing design that is so typical of the Art Nouveau period and has such a lovely warm colour to it. Then the horn clip has such a tactile and very very smooth feel to it that is wonderful to touch and slides into the hair so smoothly. Horn was often used during the Art Nouveau period and before being used in jewellery it was bathed in chemicals which gave it a delicate sheen. It was then stained with dyes to produce the desired colour and here it blends perfectly with the rose gold top. Still in wonderful condition over 120 years later, this is a truly unique and special piece. Stock# ES8687 Circa: 1895 $2,150
