The back of this pin has a sturdy "C" clasp and is stamped "14K". Also, there is a chatelaine hook for suspending a small pendant or watch. Known as chatelaine pins, brooches of this type were very popular at the turn of the century. A decorative watch would be suspended from the pin and worn on one's dress or lapel. |
