Brooch Pins
I keep seeing a couple of you people posting your brooch pins. So I decided that I have a few in my collection, so I better show them.
First is a battle axe. And the other is..I believe that its a bat? When I bought this years ago I thought it was a mouse. After a closer inspection, it has what appears to be horns. So I believe that it is a bat.
Bats do have tails.
Most species of bats have tails. In some species, such as the free-tailed bat, the tail is very visible extending far beyond the uropatagium, which is the membrane that connects the thighs of a bat and is used for flight, maneuvering, and to sweep prey up toward the wing and into the mouth.
The axe brooch is totally awesome, what wonderful engraved detail on the head and lower handle. The animal is super cute, love his red rhinestone eyes & button nose. Both pieces are great dav2, cool finds
Thank you...I thought you'd like them!
Scary horned mouse there! But love it!
