National Cyclists’ Union - silver & enamel stickpin (1926)




National Cyclists’ Union - silver & enamel stickpin (1926)





A small and attractive silver stickpin, yet hallmarked despite its size.

Founded in 1883 from an amalgamation of other cycling groups, the National Cyclist’s Union (NCU) organised and regulated cycle racing in Britain. In 1959 the NCU and its rival organisation, the British League of Racing Cyclists (1942-1959) merged to form the British Cycling Federation. The NCU also catered for non-racing cyclists and published their own Touring Guides that promoted cycling holidays and breaks. Their guides also provided useful information on touring routes, stopping places, bicycle maintenance, rules of use, general advice, etc.


Enamels: 3 (red, white & blue).
Finish: n/a.
Material: Silver (Hallmarked for Birmingham 1926).
Fixer: Long pin.
Size: ?” in diameter (about 13mm). 2 3/16” including the pin (55mm)
Process: Die-stamped.
Maker: W.J.C. (anyone know which silversmith is represented by these initials?)

Thank you for reading.
Stuart.












Today's bijoux




Today's bijoux





An initial necklace I got in Harbor Springs (Mich.) on vacation. Maeve
has a lowercase M one because we are dorks.

And a really simple necklace I made with sterling chain, eye pins, and
tiny chunks of coral. Today is a trial run for this--the 24-gauge eye
pins tend to bend too easily so I may have to make it more secure if
it comes apart.

I stocked up on jewelry-making supplies on our trip because they
definitely travel well and it gave me an excuse to revisit my bead
stash. I have plans for lots of other stuff.
