Pins and Brooches
Pins are a wonderful way to jazz up a jacket or
jumper with a unique style. Pins also offer a practical
means of holding shawls, cowls, scarves and jumpers in place. We
offer a nice range of pins for loosely woven and tightly woven
fabrics.
If you have that outfit you are trying to match, a pattern in
mind or just want specific stones put together we are happy to
custom design a tailor made wire or metal worked pin just
for you. Click once on each photo for a closer look. |
Pennanular Pins
This style of pin dates back to ancient times
when a sturdy pin was required to keep a heavy cloak shut.
There is only 1 piece as the pin shaft is attached to the top.
The pin mechanism is inserted through the cloth first, then slid
and locked into place. Perfect for knitwear.
