This exquisite antique 14K gold retractable toothpick is a rare example of functional luxury from a bygone era. Crafted in solid gold with intricate engraved detailing along the barrel, it features a slender toothpick that neatly extends and retracts back into its case. At the end of the handle sits a striking piece of natural gold quartz, a gemstone treasured for its unique flecks of native gold suspended within creamy white quartz. A small attached chain with spring ring makes it easy to wear as a pendant, attach to a charm bracelet, or secure to a watch chain.
Both practical and decorative, retractable toothpicks like this one were once status symbols of refinement and elegance. Today, they are highly collectible for their mechanical ingenuity and timeless design.
