Antique Victorian Watch Cock Pin
This pin is an example of the jewelry that was made from the around 1885 to the turn of the century.
They were made of cock covers from watches of the 1600’s to 1700’s. These little pieces of gilded brass
were handmade in cottage industries by young men and women to protect the balance & staff of a watch. They
were all unique and sometimes contained birds, swans and many decorative designs. These were saved and in
made into jewelry. This one measures 1 ¾” by 7/8”. It is a rather plain one with flowers & leaves. But,
it is also two types put together, on gilded brass and the other silver tones. It is very unique.
