Antique Lion Stickpin of 14k Gold

A bold antique stickpin dating to the turn of the 20th century, designed as a finely sculpted lion’s head crafted in 14 karat gold. The powerful expression is enhanced by an old European cut diamond held in its jaws, along with two diamond eyes, adding brilliance and lifelike intensity to the design. The lion, a longstanding symbol of strength and courage, was a favored motif in turn-of-the-century jewelry.

The pin head measures 0.8 inches by 0.65 inches wide, with the entire stickpin measuring 2.5 inches in length and weighing 4.70 grams, offering a substantial and distinguished presence when worn. It is presented in great antique condition, with stones secure and details crisp.

The piece may be purchased in its original stickpin form, or we can convert it into a wearable charm or pendant for an additional charge, providing versatile styling options.

Metal authenticity has been professionally verified using XRF (X-ray fluorescence) analysis and traditional jeweler’s acid testing, confirming solid 14K gold construction. A striking and collectible example of antique figural jewelry.
