Victorian 15ct Gold Tie Pin of a Jockey Cap with Guilloche Red Enamel

451R
Rare Find
Written by Olly Gerrish

An impressive 15ct gold tie pin of a jockey’s cap. It is a beautifully made and has been enamelled with translucent red enamel with the engraved pattern beneath showing through. This is known as Guilloche enamel which is a form of work that involves using the lathe to work the metal into a pattern and then enameling over that pattern. It was made circa 1880-1900. All our tie pins come with a stopper at the end of the pin.
