When this item popped up with a Buy It Now of $27 bucks and change, I grabbed it! Ok, it's not my name. And ok, this name has kind of been tainted by Twilight. (Though it seems to have been really popular in the 1880s.) Not only did the auction come with the pin, but with this interesting looking antique wax seal. It's amethyst with a fox or a horse or something, and a silver head with a loop. The base is crystal of some sort. It has a few chips. So it's not in perfect condition. But I thought it was pretty cool. I did a cursory google search and haven't found anything like it. Anyone out there have any idea?

Deleteit could be a wax fob, usually attached by chain to a gentleman's pocket watch. it seams to be retrofitted to a handle. lovely find!
