Originally meant to fasten a fancy jabot (scarf) during foxhunting, this safety pin is more suited now to be a fastener for charms on a chain or a single sparkly earring. It captures a moment in the 1890s when equestrian culture was having a glamorous heyday, but aren't we all still horse girls at heart?
