About the Item

The verisimilitude of this pin to a leaf may be the result of its actually having been cast from one. But the unobtrusive nib at the end of the gently curving stem, by which the pin is affixed, reveals the subtle and fine eye of the unknown craftsman who made it. While difficult to pinpoint, we believe it was made in the United States, circa 1970.
