This little fellow bears the marks for Meyle & Mayer.
Stamped "Depose", "sterling" and the Mayle & Mayer maker's mark of a dragonfly, 22cm steel pin, 4cm large, 3cm long.
Had it for a loong time without notifying the dragonfly stamp at the very bottom of the abdomen
When I bought it, there was a second one, pin attach broken, which I
don't bought ... Bitterly regret, Sight...

Your French plique-a-jour hatpin is STUNNING. You SHOULD regret not buying the other! If you ever feel like you don't want this anymore, contact me!!!
Holly ;-)
This is a lovely, lovely bee. You can see the fantastic quality from underneath. I would so happily have him in my collection. He's also pictured in the Jugendstil-Schmuck book in a fantastic red, blue & yellow combo. Try not to feel too bad about overlooking the other one, he's a real treasure.
Thanks Holly, Toracat, Sean and Jewels1900 for your kind comments, and thanks all for your loves!
BzzBzz ;-)
Thanks too Newtmes Antiquerose and DrFluffy for your loves! :-)
Just saw this dragonfly, 161285175655 item
Don't you think it is a shame to clean as much an remove all the patina?
Looks like that poor little chap has been dipped. Hate dipping.
You're right!!! Dipping & rhodium plating on silver diamond 19th jewels! Grrr.
Thanks Phil! :-)
Beauty!!
Double LOVE.
Totally agree with you idcloisonne! But be careful not to wash paste or rhinestone jewellery (1920 silver costume jewelry) wich is not open back !
Thanks to you, Virginia.vintage and MrsWarren for your loves and warm comments :-)
Many, many thanks to the 38 lovers!
Just saw this...beautiful. So organic and earthy. Holly's comment just cracked me up...don't we all have regrets while hunting.
Stunning hatpin - a work of art! Juuuust beautiful.
Thanks for sharing kyratango!
I really love this! It is beautiful!!!
I did nothing to it, it was in perfect condition!
I identified Meyle Mayer pinch very recently, by seeing other items on the net...
The same hat pin without name in the description sold on swiss EBay for 1200$ One or two years ago :-)
Many thanks for your input !
Volontiers, c'est quoi ton fb, je ne t'ai pas trouvé?
