Description: This vintage stick pin by FIX from France is a true treasure for collectors of antique jewelry. The horseshoe design, adorned with seed pearls and red paste cabochons, exudes a sense of luck and charm. The stick pin is made of yellow gold fill and has a red main stone color. The pin is signed and was manufactured before 1920, during the Art Deco era. It is an original piece, and the main stone is filled. The pin is perfect for those who appreciate fine jewelry and unique pieces with a story to tell. Francois Savard started this well-known and high class jewelry company in Paris in 1893 (during the Art Nouveau / Belle Epoque period). At that time he registered the trademark FIX which indicates his process of high quality hot gold foil laminating onto copper or brass. Working to imitate solid gold, the company used an unusually thick layer of 14-18k gold foil which formed the jewelry to withstand long term wear. It can sometimes be mistaken for and acid tests as real gold. The French became known for this superior quality laminated gold filled jewelry into the early 1900s and the company used only the best Art Nouveau designers of the time including Emile Dropsy, Louis Brochu and Edmond-Henri Becker.
