This brass scarab pin is handcrafted in the USA (Jersey City, New Jersey!) Insect pins can be worn as a lapel pin or even on a jacket or a bag. But my favorite way to wear bug pins is above a shirt chest pocket; it looks like they just flew out of your pocket!Metal Cloth & Wood is a one-woman-show, from a home studio in New Jersey. They are a PROUD SUPPORTER of the Xerces Society (xerces.org) and their efforts to protect endangered insects (and other invertebrates) and their habitats. Every purchase helps support them too!Brass - Bright Gold FinshBronze, silver & other metals will naturally tarnish with exposure to moisture in the air and oils on your skin. The polishing cloth we include with your purchase is infused with a cleaning solution and should not be washed. As with all jewelry, keep this piece clean from water, lotions, and perfumes.
