Pewter Lapel Pins – Great Economical Gifts
The pewter lapel pins make wonderful and affordable gifts for animal lovers. Many of my veterinary customers wear them on their lab coats and scrubs! All of them are cast in lead-free pewter, which is very durable and easy to care for. Pewter doesn’t tarnish, but may acquire a nice patina over time. Each lapel pin has a tie-tack type back, with a clutch fastener to keep it in place. Wear them as lapel pins or even on a hat or backpack for a change of pace. Lots of memorable designs available!

My pewter lapel pins (sometimes known as tie tacks) were real “sleepers.” By this I mean they were designs that I came up with a while back that I created just for fun and had no idea how they’d be received by my customers. Much to my delighted surprise, they were an especially popular item at the veterinary conventions where I often exhibit my work. It seems they made an especially popular yet inexpensive gift to give the staff manning the clinic back home! I think they have a nice appeal and often wear one (especially the bunny, which I love) on a collar.
I like my current collection of lapel pins a lot. Of course I’ll be adding to them in the future. How about collecting them all? That reminded me of the commercials in the 50s; “Buy (some kind of cereal) and collect all the super decoder spy rings!”
One thing I should mention here about these lead free pewter lapel pins is that these should not be given to children. Not only do they have a sharp spike on the back, but even the lead free pewter contains some tiny traces of lead which can be dangerous if ingested. Children could do this either by putting the jewelry in their mouth and sucking on it or possibly by just playing with the pewter and then putting their fingers in their mouths. This is probably a good idea to follow with all types of pewter jewelry.
These pewter lapel pins/tie tacks are fun, detailed and inexpensive enough that you can have quite a few of them to dress up your scrubs or lab jacket. I should also mention that most of these same designs are available on a name badge. You can check them out in my name badge section.
