Vintage Daguer pin, green enamel, rare animal coat of arms, old badge

AFW - Antique France Worldwide

Description

Old rectangular pin, with an enameled appearance, featuring a shiny dark green background. The visible side displays a stylized coat of arms with a graphic representation of a deer's head or a similar animal, surmounted by a stylized tree reminiscent of a palm tree or a tropical tree, with drops or fruits falling from the foliage. Below the animal, a stylized branch or plant element is visible, all outlined in white or ivory.

At the bottom of the pin, the lettering "DAGUET" is visible, each letter individually colored (green, white, red, yellow, brown), accentuating the overall decorative aspect. The contrast between the deep green background and the white motifs offers excellent readability, enhanced by the apparent silver or metallic outline around the pin.

The surface has a glossy effect typical of enamel or a lacquered coating, with some visible micro-scratches and signs of wear under light, characteristic of an old object. The contours are clean, with a slight patina on the edges, indicating past use.

The overall visual evokes a heraldic or scout style, common in badges and pins produced during the second half of the 20th century. No manufacturer's mark is visible on the presented side.

Condition

Used item, sold as is. Traces of wear, micro-scratches, and marks visible on the enameled surface. Presence of a slight patina on the edges. No major chips apparent on the visible side.

Did you know? The word "daguet" in French refers to a young stag bearing its first unbranched antlers. This term is often used in heraldry or scouting to symbolize youth, vitality, and belonging to a group or region where the deer is an emblematic animal.
