The fact that beauty and utility are not mutually exclusive is a truth that our ancestors felt much more connected to than our contemporaries. Take safety pins, for example: "The safety pin, as the smallest, most delicate toiletry item [...] can be used in all shapes and sizes for a lady's toilette. Who can even imagine the limits of the usability of such pins? They are necessary for tie bows and ties, for jabots and collars, in a larger form for belts, skirt and jacket fastenings, for gathering wide sleeves" This is how the Deutsche Goldschmiedezeitung praised the usefulness of a pin in an article entitled "Der Schmuck als Geschenk" (Jewellery as a Gift) in 1904. This is a particularly luxurious example of this type of jewellery. A natural pearl is elegantly and casually placed off-center on a narrow pin. It is accompanied by sparkling old reed diamonds in platinum millegrain settings, totaling around 0.93 ct. The gold from which the pin is made is then visible at the side, where it presents wonderful ornamental hand engravings. The brooch is in very good condition and of wonderful quality. We date it to around 1910, a luxurious piece that combines beauty and usefulness.
