Mounted in 15ct Gold, this sensitively hand painted portrait of a fox was made by William Bishop Ford (1832-1922) a renowned miniaturist working particularly with enamels in the 19th century. Circa 1880's and converted in our workshop from a tie pin, this wonderful jewel could make a really fabulous gift. The exquisite fineness of the execution has entirely captured our hearts and we are loath to let this piece go.
From the British Museum: 'William Bishop Ford , painter of enamel miniatures (1832-1922), was a pupil of the miniaturist William Essex, whom he assisted at the studio at 3 Osnaburgh, Regent's Park in the 1850s and 1860s. He exhibited at the Royal Academy from 1854 for over 40 years'.
It measures 2cm across and the setting sits in a neatly beaded frame. On an contemporary chain of 9ct Gold with bolt ring clasp.
