🏇 Historical notes on equestrian pins

Stick pins were accessories of great elegance and refinement, very popular among the English nobility and upper middle class of the 19th century.

They were often worn on ties, scarves, or jacket lapels and served not only as ornaments but also to express personal status and passions. The horseshoe, in particular, was considered a powerful symbol of luck and protection, while the whip evoked the world of equestrianism, an elite sport and a hallmark of the British aristocracy.

Today these pins represent a refined vintage detail, ideal for collectors or for those who want to add a touch of historical elegance to their style.
