A recent purchase because I thought it was a charming item, but unsigned. I assume that this technique of cutting out a pattern in silver then applying it is not easy. The pin measures 1.5" in length and has a C clasp. I have looked on several sites that deal with this stuff but no luck.

Thanks.

Been busy but hope this one works:

Nice piece. It reminds me of a pin I picked up in Sydney Australia.

Could you possibly post an image of the back?

It appears to be a piece from the Heintz Art Metal Shop in Buffalo. A view of the clasp would help confirm that.

Best,
Fred

Fred:

Thanks for the reply. I knew there was something familiar about it but actually didn't know that Heintz made jewelry so I didn't make the connection.

Here's a pic of the back.
