Here is a well-made and nicely conceived silver pin by an unknown studio jeweler. The triangular base is impressed with a geometric pattern enhanced by oxidized surfaces of various metallic shades.

Reminiscent of some Scandinavian pieces from the 1960s, this more modern version of the cattail pin features two freshwater pearls. The stems are gold-filled wires flattened at the top to secure the pearls.

This pin is a simple design but an unusual one. It is a large 11cm semicircle—or it might be described as one-third of a full moon. This rarely seen pin was, according to the Georg Jensen company, designed by Gail Spence for Hans Hansen in the late 1980s. Hans Hansen became part of Georg Jensen in 1992. Since it has both hallmarks it was probably produced around that time. It is no longer in production.
