Vintage "Extra Special" Gold-Tone Stick Pin — 1970s–80s

$ 18.00 Save $ -18.00
/

The words Extra Special cut through a small rectangular gold-tone plaque in open block lettering — the kind of direct, self-assured sentiment that mid-century and early post-war novelty jewelry wore without irony. Stick pins of this type were pinned to lapels, hat bands, and scarves, a small declaration worn close to the body. Unsigned, as the vast majority of novelty stick pins were. A tiny, confident object with a lot of personality for its size.
