This 18k yellow gold stickpin was originally worn in a man's cravat, the predecessor of the necktie. It is shaped like a hand holding a cocktail glass, with three seed pearls set in its cuff, ring, and as a playful bubble in the glass.
This stickpin could be converted into a pendant for a small extra fee if desired.
