stickpins
Necktie jewelry items
Stickpins are decorative pins with an ornamental head, worn in neckties or lapels.
The pin has a long shaft that passes through the fabric, sometimes secured with a clutch on the back.
Once common accessories for men's formal wear, stickpins have largely fallen out of fashion: His grandfather's stickpin had a small pearl at the top.
