For those who view jewelry as works of art, here is a pin with strong sculptural elements, set with what looks to be a reddish-pink tourmaline, or rubellite. It features a quirky yet thoughtful construction, composed of a layered disc with an exposed middle area into which is set the irregular-shaped and polished stone with the matrix showing through the back. The stone is cleverly secured by curling silver wires. The back sports a rollover clasp in good working order. The pin probably dates from the 1960s; it measures 2 inches in diameter, and about 1 inch deep. It is unmarked, but clearly the work of a very talented jeweler/designer. Gross weight: 36 grams
