A breathtakingly sophisticated gentleman's accessory reflecting the peak era of French luxury artisanship. Provenance and Official Hallmarks The solid gold stem is deeply and clearly stamped with the official "HERMES PARIS" signature. Alongside the signature, it features the historic French state assay hallmark of the Eagle's Head (Tête d'aigle) guaranteeing solid 18K (750) gold purity. As demonstrated in the macro photographs, it also retains the lozenge-shaped French maker's mark (poinçon de maître) and the hand-engraved vintage archive registry numbers, providing ironclad historical pedigree and absolute authenticity. Condition and Mechanism Note This vintage piece has been professionally serviced at a jewelry atelier to ensure perfect modern functionality. As is standard and recommended for antique functional fine jewellery, the internal folding spring mechanism has been expertly maintained and refreshed, allowing both pieces to snap and lock into position with absolute precision and satisfying crispness.
