Victorian Aesthetic Movement Moorish Brass Extra Long Teardrop Hat Pin, 1900s
About the Item
A necessity during the Victorian Era, hat pins not only balanced precarious hats atop piles of hair but also moonlighted as weapons against overzealous gentlemen. Though teetering hats are no longer de rigeur, glorious century-plus-old pins such as these can be pierced through modern hats as statement accessories or even arranged in vases like bouquets of flowers. This extraordinary example features a Moorish brass teardrop atop an extra long stem to create a collectible worthy of standing on its own.
