Presenting a rare and captivating Georgian Sepia Stickpin, a true testament to early 19th-century artistry. This exquisite stickpin features a finely detailed sepia portrait, possibly painted on vellum, depicting Lady Justice (Justitia). Her iconic attributes are beautifully rendered: she wears a blindfold symbolising impartiality and holds her scales, poised to weigh truth and fairness. The delicate artistry captures the grace and profound symbolism of the figure, preserved beautifully beneath a domed rock crystal.

The oval portrait is elegantly framed in a warm 9ct gold setting.

Condition: The pin is presented in excellent condition, only shows slight signs of its considerable age with minor surface wear on the rock crystal surface. The gold pin itself is robust and secure, ready to adorn a lapel, cravat, or hat with historical gravitas.
