A late 19th century gold stick pin by Wièse, French, the roundel modelled as a griffin eating berries, signed ‘WIESE’, maker’s mark, French assay mark, length 7.8cm. £300-£400

In 1890, Louis Wièse registered his own maker’s mark, (distinct from his father Jules’s earlier maker’s mark), the new mark showed the name ‘WIESE’ with a star above and below, in a horizontal lozenge, as seen on this stickpin.
