A remarkable example of antique novelty and hunting trophy jewelry, this curved brooch is crafted from a polished boar tusk. The center features a detailed, low-relief carving of a wild boar in mid-stride. The brooch has ornate sterling silver fittings decorated with a dot motif and the end cap also has a embossed crocodile pattern, adding style to the organic form.
Popularized during the Victorian and Edwardian eras, hunting-themed jewelry captured a deep fascination with the natural world and outdoor pursuits. With its working c-clasp closure, this distinctive historical token makes a bold conversational piece, ideal for securing a vintage cloak, accenting a lapel, or adding an antique edge to a modern denim or leather jacket.
Marks: unmarked, acid tested as sterling silver Weight: 10.6 grams Measurement: approximately 3.1755 inches long (cap end to tip of tusk) and 0.7055 inches wide at the end cap
