Small Penannular Shawl Pin

Penannular pins (or brooches), also called Celtic brooches, are clothes fasteners commonly associated with the beginning of the Early Medieval period (approximately 5th century-10th century) in Ireland and Britain. Penannular means forming an incomplete circle. These brooches can range from simply- designed to ornate works of art with gemstones and multiple metals.

A smaller diameter and thinner wire than my Penannular pin, for medium and lighter weight shawls and scarves. About 2” in diameter, with 2.75” pins. Sterling silver. Choose from smooth, hammered, or lined finishes.
