A finely modeled gold, silver, silver-gilt, and enamel pendant (jeton) in the form of a parade helmet of the Life Guard Horse Regiment of His Majesty (czar Nicholas II was Colonel-in-Chief of the regiment), circa 1900. Apparently unmarked. Condition: worn gilding, tiny contact marks. Height 1 1/4 in. (3,2 cm).

Gold helmet with silver trimming is surmounted with silver-gilt double headed Imperial eagle. The front of the helmet is applied with silver, gold and enamel St. Andrew star.

Elaborate multi-piece construction. The pendant is a precise miniature copy of a real Horse Guard helmet.

Extremely fine modeling of a real helmet.
