Cartier Edwardian 18K Gold Enamel Diamond & Sapphire Swivel Stick Pin

Antique Cartier Paris 18K Gold Enamel Diamond & Sapphire Stick Pin

A rare and ingenious creation from the Edwardian era, this Cartier swivel stick pin showcases the maison’s exceptional artistry and technical mastery. Handcrafted in 18K yellow gold, the circular head features a rotating double-sided design, revealing two exquisite faces that reflect refined elegance from every angle.

On one side, concentric rings of royal blue and emerald-green guilloché enamel encircle a vivid round sapphire, forming a geometric composition of symmetry and color. A gentle turn reveals the reverse — a sparkling old-cut diamond framed by a halo of rose-cut diamonds and deep green enamel, radiating with subtle brilliance.

This ingenious dual-sided mechanism allowed the wearer to alternate between the two faces, adapting the jewel to both day and evening attire — a hallmark of early-20th-century sophistication.
