A French Art Nouveau 18K gold and diamond stickpin in the form of a mythological beast, perhaps a serpent-like dragon called a “vouivre,” which was reputed to be particularly vicious but easily terrified by naked humans . The creature grasps a small rose cut diamond in its open jaws. Mythological beasts of all sorts were particularly popular in French Art Nouveau jewelry. The pin stem bears French 18K gold hallmarks.
