Safety Pin Earrings — Navy

A closed safety pin in deep navy enamel, with the brass left bare at the clasp end so there is something bright at the bottom of the shape. It does not open — it is a charm, not a working pin.

The longest of the three in the sewing box, and the one that hangs straightest. Navy is the darkest enamel we use and the only one that nearly disappears against a dark collar, which some people want and some do not.

Brass darkens slowly with wear; a jeweller's cloth brings it back in a minute, and the enamel needs nothing but a wipe. Take them off before swimming or showering. Full guidance is on Care & Materials.
