Auguste-Germain Cadet-Picard, stickpin, made in Paris, 1867. He made and showed “electrical pins invented by Trouvé. At this exhibition, jewels with moving parts powered by electricity attracted a lot of attention. The jewel contains electric terminals so that, when connected to a battery concealed in the wearer’s pocket, the eyes roll and the jaws snap.”
How precious is this stick-pin? I want to put one in the collar of my blazer.
