Antique Victorian Brass/GF Snake and Blue Art Glass Hat Pin

  

Cool antique hat pin featuring a snake with ruby paste eyes coiled around vibrant robin's egg blue art glass. Notable loss to the gold fill but in otherwise pretty good shape for its age with nice detailing to the snake's body.

I believe the shaft is steel but not certain. Weight: Approx 7.6 grams. Damage: Age related wear to GF.
