This listing is for one of my best-selling shawl pins MADE TO ORDER for you (one of which is shown here). I can make a nearly identical one for you, but since they are made by hand they will have slight variations. I can also make variants according to your specifications -- just ask! I will usually be able to ship the next day. I shaped this shawl pin or brooch from solid red brass wire and polished it to a bright, shiny yellow gold color. The ancient form of a penannular clasp is here shaped into a shawl pin which is slightly pointed like a teardrop to give it a slightly mod look. It will hold firm if you insert the tongue into a knit or open weave fabric, then slide it through the opening and turn to lock in place. The point is sharp and it's strong enough to pierce wool felt. Sizes: 14 gauge, about 2 1/4 inches long; 12 gauge about 2 3/4" long; 10 gauge about 3 1/4" long.
