Every so often, we come across a small treasure that raises more questions than it answers. This time, it’s a fascinating little pin that appears to have religious significance and seems quite old. It caught our attention amidst a collection of other vintage pins, likely from the early 20th century or later.

What makes this piece stand out is not only its antique nature but also the craftsmanship. As we examined the high-resolution photos and studied the materials, our curiosity about its age grew.
