Early Hattie Carnegie Sterling Silver Capricorn Zodiac Pin
Fantastic figural brooch is marked Sterling, and is attributable to Hattie Carnegie based on non-sterling signed versions in this same series. The patent for pins in this series was registered in 1944 by designer Hugo de Alteriis. Beautifully crafted, with classical Greco-Roman figure holding the horn of the ram, with a faceted ruby red glass stone set into a star shape, and the word Capricorn incised in a banner at the bottom. 2" across; excellent vintage condition with minimal scratching/plating nicks observable on reverse under magnification. - $240
