Cartier Emerald And Diamond Clou Stick Pin

This gorgeous Art Deco stick pin, dating from circa 1920, features bright diamonds and lush emeralds in the shape of a lucky horseshoe nail. This stick pin can be seen as an early stylistic precursor to the popular Cartier €˜Juste un Clou€™ collection. This stick pin would add a pop of colour and sparkle to the lapel of a woolen jacket or a silk tie. Joanna Hardy says: €œThe emeralds are vibrant in this stick pin. An elegant and stylish precursor to the famous Cartier nail: the clou.€ Vivienne Becker says: €A rare and important stick pin, showing Cartier€™s early interpretation of the €˜clou€™ or nail, in the Belle Epoque period, when the inspiration came from horse-shoe nails.€
