Matching Black Americana Scatter Pins

These are an identical pair of pins that feature an African American woman motif.  They have a high gloss, soft goldtone finish with matte black enamel on the faces, matte red enamel on the lips, and sparkling green rhinestone eyes.  Black memorabilia is highly collectible and consists of any item that is made in the imagery of a Black person or attributed to a Black artisan.  Collecting these pieces can be very expensive and designs range from early, sometimes offensive slavery items to modern works like the beautiful "Legends" cameo pin by Coreen Simpson featured here on January 20th. 

Feel free to contact me if you are interested in purchasing this piece.  Questions, comments, and additional information are always appreciated.  My online shop on http://www.rubylane.com/ is coming soon.
