These copper handmade hand forged copper penannular brooches work wonderfully to pin together shawls or cloaks. They look great on knit sweaters and function as a clip or button to hold sweaters closed with style. These pins make a timeless gift with medieval charm for men or women. I love when function and beauty collide. Weather it is a gift for mom to keep her shawl in place or a special surprise for the guy or gal in your life to wear to a medieval festival, these special pins won't disappoint. These brooches are made completely by hand in my studio. The artistic details like the vines with either flowers or leaves are soldered in place. The special pins are hand hammered for detail and strength and natural patina has been added and sealed. I offer multiple styles and sizes. Approximate measurements for each are listed below: Small classic (great for using as a top button on a sweater or to hold a scarf together) 1 inch X 1 inch Medium classic ( use it anywhere, excellent for shawls, cloaks, holding a blanket around your shoulders, even kilts) 1 1/2 inches X 1 1/2 inches Medium classic with curled edges (use it on shawls, cloaks, sweaters, anywhere) 1 3/4 inches x 1 3/4 inches Large with flower and vine ( Use it anywhere, coats, cloaks, shawls etc) 1 7/8 inches X 1 7/8 inches Medium with spiral vine and flower (Use it anywhere, coats, cloaks, shawls, sweaters) 1 3/4 inches X 1 3/4 inches Medium vine with leaves ( Use it anywhere, coats, cloaks, shawls, sweaters) 1 3/4 inches x. 1 3/4 inches As with all pins, please use these on woven fabrics. Using them on non woven items like leather will leave a permanent mark. Simply use the pin to slowly wiggle between the fibers so no lasting hole or tearing of fibers occurs. The pin can be used from left to right or right to left. Just rotate the eye pin to the side of your choice before you begin. It is adjustable for use by right and left handed people. The video on this listing shows how to use these special pins.Orders over 35.00 qualify for FREE shipping!
