The jabot pin, épingle de jabot, is a special type of brooch consisting of two parts. When worn, the middle part disappears and only the two ends are visible on clothing. They were originally used to pin the jabot, a bib made of batiste or lace, to the neckline of the dress. In the late 19th century, they were often designed in the shape of arrows or swords. They became fashionable again in Art Deco and now took on geometric, abstract shapes. This brooch presents two identical end pieces with onyx and diamonds in platinum settings. One of these end pieces can be pulled off, allowing the pin to be attached in many different ways. It can hold a scarf, decorate a tie or enhance a lapel. The design language is geometric, typical of 1920s Art Deco. The onyxes form circles that are held by palmette-like arrows. The color palette is cool, black and white was the fashion of the era. The hallmarks show that the piece was made in France and was later imported to Vienna, where we discovered it.
