Pink Ribbon Breast Cancer Awareness Pin

This item is an awareness ribbon lapel pin, specifically modeled after the pink ribbon design popularized by the Breast Cancer Awareness movement. The pin is constructed from a non-precious base metal with a matte, brushed silver-tone or pewter-colored finish, giving it a subtle textured appearance. It features a fold-over design where the right tail crosses over the left. Embellishing the piece are eight small, round-faceted pink glass or synthetic crystals: four are arranged vertically along the bottom edge of the left tail, three are horizontally positioned along the bottom of the right tail, and a single stone is centered at the point of overlap. The pin measures approximately 1 to 1.5 inches in height and utilizes a standard tie-tack or clutch-back fastening mechanism on the reverse side. In terms of condition, there is visible darkening and surface wear on the lower left tail, including a distinct circular blemish that suggests tarnishing or the loss of the decorative plating. The craftsmanship is typical of mass-produced promotional jewelry from the late 1990s to the 2010s, designed for durability and philanthropic visibility rather than high intrinsic value.
