3 unique hat pins - in a vintage Japanese shaker holder. The porcelain holder has a lovely cherry blossom tree scene with a gold enameled top. The bottom is clearly marked made in Japan. Guessing 40-50's on that piece. The gold overlay does show a minor bit of paint loss. The 3 hat pins I created from vintage and antique glass beads. The blue wedding cake measures 6" long. The 1880's black glass mourning bead with the rondels measures 6" as well.
The tulip beaded one - 12mm Swarovski light sapphire and again 6" long. As with all my hat pins all the pieces are glued into place not just crimped off. All accompanying crystal accents are from my collection of antique and vintage genuine Swarovski crystal. All never used before. The vintage shaker will hold up to 10 more pins. I don't think I have the other matching shaker so it might be the only set I can make.
