This is an old Victorian 10K enamel mourning pin with framed braided hair.
I have tested the pin throughout as there are different colors in the metals.
The pin is tested 10K, the pin portion is not gold, I do not know what kind of metal.
The pin has ornated borders with black enamel in between.
The center has a glass cover with brown color braided hair inside.
It measures 1.25 inches long and 1-1/16 inches high. The thickness is 5/16 inch.
The entire pin weighs 8.4 grams.
Condition is previously owned and it appears to be in excellent condition considering its age.
I have acquired it from an estate sale in Laguna Woods, CA and I have no other information or history about it.
A dime is placed for size reference and not included.
Shipping includes the necessary insurance and everything has gone way up in price!
