Alle Auktionen / Schmuck und Edelsteine / Antique Stickpin with Reverse Crystal Intaglio Set in Gold, c. 1875


We first encountered jewellery with hunting and sporting motifs on a large scale in the last third of the 19th century. This pin depicts a hunting or farm dog: presumably a Manchester terrier or German pinscher. The beautiful animal portrait is executed in an extremely elaborate, now forgotten technique known as "Essex Crystal" or "Reverse Crystal Intaglio". The motif is engraved into the back of a rock crystal and then painted from behind, giving it an almost three-dimensional appearance. The elegant, lifelike lines are typical of these objects from Great Britain. The crystal is set in an understated red gold frame. At the back, it reveals a mother-of-pearl back panel, which subtly shimmers against the background of the motif from the front view. The length of the pin and the size of the showpiece indicate that it was made around 1875; later pins were significantly smaller. A strikingly beautiful and rare piece that is ready to adorn a lapel again in excellent condition.
