A fine quality antique Scottish 15ct gold and diamond stock pin/bar brooch hailing from the Victorian era and still residing in its original Moroccan leather "coffin" case.
Traditionally worn as hunting attire this delightful brooch features a beautifully detailed fox head with tiny old mine-cut diamond eyes. The head swivels so you can wear it pinned north to south or east to west. It fastens with a sturdy pin back and has a detachable safety chain all in solid 15ct gold.
This beauty comes in its original coffin shaped case made in red Moroccan leather with gold tooling. The case is lined in cream silk and purple velvet and printed inside the lid " Cradock's Diamond Merchant, Goldsmith & Silversmith, Charing Cross, Glasgow"
A heirloom worthy piece of antique 15ct gold equestrian jewellery, good for the gents or the ladies!
