Vintage Enamel Racing Pendant of 14k Gold

This distinctive harness race pendant (circa 1950) captures the dynamism of the sport in finely detailed 14k gold, accented with hand-painted enamel. The craftsmanship and subject matter reflect both artistry and nostalgia, making it a standout jewel for collectors of equestrian-themed pieces.

The pendant is marked for 14k gold and also bears the maker’s mark for Sloan & Co. of Newark, NJ—one of America’s most respected jewelry firms of the mid-20th century, celebrated for their quality and design. The gold content has been further verified through XRF (x-ray fluorescence) analysis and traditional jeweler’s acid testing, confirming purity and integrity.

Measuring 1.1 inches from top to bottom by 0.85 inches across, and weighing 8.6 grams, the pendant is substantial in presence yet refined in detail. It is in very good condition, with the enamel remaining vibrant.

A rare piece with both equestrian appeal and strong provenance, this jewel is an ideal addition to a curated collection of vintage American jewelry.

Materials: 14k gold, enamel.
