Victorian Nouveau Gold Fill Trembler Hat Pin w Garnet Molded Glass Flower, 1900s

About the Item

A necessity during the Victorian Era, hat pins not only balanced precarious hats atop piles of hair but also moonlighted as weapons against overzealous gentlemen. Though teetering hats are no longer de rigeur, glorious century-plus-old pins such as these can be pierced through modern hats as statement accessories or even arranged in the hair like chopsticks. This extraordinary example features an impressive ¾” molded garnet glass finial with gold-filled Art Nouveau “petals” atop a trembler spring to create an accessory that stands on its own. 7” hat pin with gold-filled trembler stem; ¾” molded garnet glass floral finial atop gold-filled Art Nouveau “petals.” material: gold, molded garnet glass noteworthy: gently clean with damp cloth repairs: none condition: very good measurements: length: 5 ½” (stem), ¾” (spring), ¾” (finial) finial diameter: ¾” signature: no signature present
