Art Deco 9ct Gold and Platinum Engine Turned Design Bar Brooch
SKU17/R
Description
A smart and versatile classic bar brooch, which is as at home on a dress as a tie. It was made in Birmingham in 1926 by The Albion Chain Co. Frank & Walter Hayes Rabone traded as the Albion Chain Co and their address was on Albion Street, Birmingham.
The inner platinum section has a complex criss cross and lined engine turned motif and the outside sides are in 9ct gold with further engine turned decoration. The contrast between the gold and platinum is very attractive and goes well with the patterned effect of the metals. This is a good engine turned design typical of the 1920s.

Order FAQs
Do you offer layaway? Can I pay in instalments?
Yes! We have different ways of doing layaways.
Paypal is most popular or via bank transfer. We try to be as flexible as possible, so if you tell us what you need, we will agree the layaway terms on a case by case basis with you.
We usually offer a PayPal invoice over the period of 3 months, but can happily extend to 6 months if needed. We do not charge interest for instalment payments. Paypal invoice allows you to pay a partial payment whenever is convenient for you.
A 20% up front, non refundable, deposit is required to hold the item, and this counts towards the item total. Payment is then made over the following weeks and the final payment must be made by the agreed end date.
Please note, items bought on layaway are returnable, but the deposit is non refundable. Items are shipped once payment is completed. If payment is not made within the agreed time frame, we will try to work with you to agree a solution, but reserve the right to refund your money (bar the deposit) and re-list the item Please contact us directly to discuss further.

The history of tie pins
Tie Pins are also known as Stick Pins. They were first popularised in the early 19th Century by the English Gentleman. They can be worn in a numerous ways: cravats, ties or on a jacket collar (lapel). They are the perfect gift for the gentleman who wishes to glam up his look for a wedding or for the races.
A tie pin is a long pin, worn vertically with a decorative top. The pin can be straight or a twisted section (for extra security). All our tie pins come with a protective cap (stopper) to place over the pointed end to help keep the pin in place and to stop you getting spiked!
