Antique Mexican Silver Pin w/ 7 Dangle Accents – Unique Artisan Craftsmanship
This extraordinary antique Mexican silver pin is a testament to the artistry of traditional craftsmanship. Weighing approximately 29.5 grams, this ornate piece features intricate designs of birds and leaves, measuring roughly 2 1/4″ x 1 1/4″. While it has been lovingly repaired with a modern pin & C clasp replacing its original style, the pin’s charm remains undiminished. Its distinctive curved and notched base is designed to hold seven meticulously handcrafted items: peppers, gourds, and two vessels, one featuring a long twisted handle. Each item ranges in length from about 1/2″ to 1″, seamlessly seamed together, reminiscent of the beads found on antique jewelry. This vintage pin, with its visible signs of wear, stands as a rare and captivating find.
