DescriptionThese forged steel pins/brooches are strong and beautifully made. The pin can either be held fast between the two spirals, or it can be twisted so the pin sits above the loop. This brooch is held in position by the pull of the fabric through which it passes. These brooches were initially developed from the Roman clasp or fibula.
