Later in history political views were expressed through the language of gems: \"REPEAL\" and \"SUFFRAGE\" pieces are extremely rare and collectible.  \u003c\/span\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Erica Weiner","offers":[{"title":"1","offer_id":39301776965716,"sku":"","price":1250.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"2","offer_id":28377387302996,"sku":"","price":1400.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"3","offer_id":28377396314196,"sku":"","price":1550.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"4","offer_id":28377396445268,"sku":"","price":1700.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5","offer_id":28377396543572,"sku":"","price":1850.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"6","offer_id":28377396641876,"sku":"","price":2000.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"7","offer_id":28377397395540,"sku":"","price":2150.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"8","offer_id":28377397493844,"sku":"","price":2300.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"9","offer_id":28377397592148,"sku":"","price":2450.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10","offer_id":28377397690452,"sku":"","price":2600.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"11","offer_id":28377397821524,"sku":"","price":2750.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"12","offer_id":28377397952596,"sku":"","price":2900.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0156\/5502\/products\/acrostics2_e1617ce2-1321-4499-88f0-582d7fb45798.jpg?v=1571438228"},{"product_id":"baby-tooth-necklace","title":"Baby Tooth Necklace","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eYour baby\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e just lost their first tooth.
