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 the hair like chopsticks. This extraordinary example features a brass flower whose faceted crystal petals surround a fiery ½” molded opaline glass center. 7 ¾” hat pin with brass stem; floral finial with six crystal petals surrounding a ½” molded opaline glass center. material: brass, crystals, molded opaline glass noteworthy: gently clean with damp cloth repairs: none condition: very good with light tarnish on stem measurements: length: 6 ½” (stem), ¼” (finial) finial diameter: 1” signature: no signature present
