New Pins! Just in time for Jubilee and OKC.

 More of a lapel pin -- goldtone (almost bronze-looking) horse shoe pin with orange and turquoise stones and pearls. Some of the pearls are a bit worn but have not lost their pizazz! A great addition to a day or hunt coat, or maybe even a western jacket! $25 7/8" wide x 1" high

 Goldtone stock pin with dark stone. A striking pin! $20 3/4" high x 2" wide

 Vintage sterling silver with pearlescent setting. Great vintage condition. $35 3/4" high x 1.5" wide

Very interesting stock pin. I've never seen one with a charm on it before. $15 1" high (including charm) x 2.5" wide

Email me at petersns85@gmail.com to purchase any of these pins.  I ship anywhere, and will also be at Jubilee or OKC if you would like to avoid shipping costs.

Vintage Stock Pins

Hello fellow equestrians! This blog begins a new place to shop for unique, quality, and glamorous accessories for the hunt rider. Whatever your discipline, whether it's Hunter Pleasure at breed shows or hunter/jumper competition, chances are you wear a stock pin on your collar. Ever noticed how there are very few stock pins available at your local tack store? In my experience there are the following: the whip, the horse shoe, the hunting horn, the horse head, the fox, and some combination of those themes. These pins are a dime a dozen and in my experience break constantly. This is because they are poor quality and are not made from sturdy materials.

Well, if you are looking for something different for your show ensemble, look no further. I have been searching high and low for lovely, vintage pins from the Victorian Era. They are so beautiful and each one is different. As I get photos of them up they will be for purchase through this blog. Move quickly, I only have one of each and if you don't buy them someone else will! Those of you that are going to the Morgan Grand Nationals in OKC can come see them in person if you wish, and this would also eliminate a charge for shipping.

Enjoy looking at the pins as I add more. Photos of the first ones to come soon.
