Edwardian Engraved Emerald Sapphire Diamond Swivel Stick Pin
A Jeweled Edwardian Stick Pin with Swivel Design and Engraved Gold Detail
An exquisite example of Edwardian jewelry, this antique swivel stick pin brings together vivid gemstones, refined goldwork, and a beautifully engineered reversible design. The circular head is arranged in a striking target-style composition, with concentric rings of color and brilliance that create a jewel of remarkable visual presence.
One side features a rich blue sapphire at the center, framed by sparkling old-cut diamonds and accented by a surrounding border of lively green gemstones, likely emeralds. The reverse side reveals an equally captivating design: a central diamond encircled by deep blue sapphires and a vibrant green outer border. This clever swivel construction allows the wearer to display either side, offering two distinct looks within a single antique jewel.
The gold setting adds warmth and depth to the composition, while the engraved side detail gives the piece an additional layer of craftsmanship. Seen from the profile, the engraved goldwork enhances the architectural quality of the jewel, showing that this pin was designed to be admired from every angle.
Elegant, rare, and beautifully detailed, this Edwardian stick pin would make a refined addition to an antique jewelry collection. It can be worn in a lapel, tie, scarf, or displayed as a collector’s piece, offering both historical charm and gem-set sophistication.

How do I know a piece is authentic, and can I trust DSF?
Buying fine jewelry online takes trust, especially at this level. DSF Antique Jewelry is a New York–based dealer with over 50 years of fine jewelry expertise. Every piece is examined for authenticity and condition before it is listed — we assess hallmarks, maker's marks, metal content, gemstones, and construction consistent with the stated period or designer. For signed pieces such as Cartier, Buccellati, or Van Cleef & Arpels, we verify maker's marks and signatures. We're glad to send additional photographs of any hallmark, or speak with you directly, before you decide.
Why does antique gold look different, and is surface wear normal?
Antique pieces were often made in gold standards less common today, such as 15ct (used in Britain only between 1854 and 1932), 9ct, or higher-karat continental gold, which give a warmer tone than typical modern 14k. Light surface wear, softened edges, and a gentle patina are normal and expected on antique jewelry — they reflect the age and authenticity of the piece, not flaws. We describe the true condition of every item honestly in its listing.
What do the hallmarks and maker's marks mean?
Hallmarks are small stamped marks that identify the metal standard, and often the maker, assay office, and date. They are one of the best tools for authenticating antique jewelry. We identify and explain the marks we find on each piece in its description, and we're happy to send close-up photographs of any hallmark on request so you can see exactly what you're buying.
Can pieces be resized or adjusted?
It depends on the piece. Many antique rings can be resized, but bands with all-around engraving, thin shanks, or gemstones near the base may be limited in how far they can safely go, and some pieces are best left as-is to preserve their integrity. We list each item's measurements as they currently are. If you're unsure whether something can be safely adjusted, contact us before buying and we'll give you an honest assessment for that specific piece.
How should I care for and store fine jewelry?
Clean gently with a soft cloth, avoid harsh chemicals, ultrasonic cleaners, and chlorine, and store pieces separately so they don't scratch one another. Remove rings and bracelets for heavy manual tasks. Antique gold is softer than modern alloys, so period pieces are best enjoyed with normal care. Treated well, fine antique jewelry lasts for generations — many of our pieces are already a century or more old and still beautiful.
