	This wonderful 1940s carved wood dog pin measures 2 ˝” long by 1 ľ” wide and has painted features. The silver tone metal safety clasp back is fastened by two tacks/small nails and the front has a light sheen, so I believe he was varnished at one point. Very good vintage condition with some wear to his paint, mainly on the collar. A thoroughly charming vintage fellow! $65.00 Item#FF 1207-007

	Drape your wrist in serpentine splendor with this tubular mesh snake bracelet. Made of silver tone metal with a hollow head and tail section of stamped metal, it measures 5/8" wide (across the mesh) and 6 ˝" around the inside when 'relaxed'.

	Like their real life counterparts, this trio of yellow jacket pins will cause a buzz wherever you take them. All are made of stamped gold tone metal with yellow and red textured coating on two and red and navy blue paint on the third. They have clear Lucite wings and measure 1" long by 1" wide (wing tip to wing tip). The red and yellow coated are marked "Made in Korea", while the red/navy is unmarked. The yellow and red/navy are in excellent vintage condition. The red coated is very good, with the exception of the latch missing on its safety clasp pin back. It is still wearable as a c clasp but I am pricing them accordingly (as two pins with the third free). Are you wild about wasps? $18.00 Item#FF 0607-006

The styling reminds me of the Middle East or possibly India, though I'm unsure of its origin or age. $22.00 Item#FF 1106-004

SOLD	I adore this wonderful cardinal pin. Made of wood with painted features, he has twisted copper wire feet that grasp a small branch and a safety clasp back that is held by two screws. His size is quite nice…2 1/8" wide by 1 ľ" long…and he is very well made. Excellent condition and judging by his clasp and back, I would date him to the 1960s. He's a beau of a bird! Item#FF 1107-003
