Pin
Thematic Variety: From Fantasy to Historical Symbols
In the Pins category, you will find a selection that covers the best of pop culture and symbols with history. From the iconic Harry Potter characters — such as pins of Harry, Hermione, Ron, Hagrid, Dobby, Luna Lovegood, or thematic sets with Hedwig, glasses, and the marks — to pieces inspired by The Hobbit with the Bilbo Baggins Button Pin. We also offer sets from sagas like Game of Thrones and commemorative items such as the 100th Anniversary Pin of the Spanish Legion, designed for those seeking unique and varied pins for collectors.
Besides licenses and characters, the category includes badges with historical and symbolic significance: Templar crosses, the Jerusalem Cross of St. John, and various Masonic insignias featuring the square and compass in gold finishes, aged bronze, and mosaic variations. This wide thematic range makes our Pins ideal pieces both to complement an outfit and to enrich a collection with items that tell stories and cultural references.
Quality and Materials: Gold, Bronze, and Enamels
The quality of the Pins is a key factor for discerning collectors. In our catalog, you will see finishes in bright gold, aged bronze, hard and soft enamel, as well as metal pieces with red and gold details, such as the Templar medal. The materials not only provide appearance but also durability: well-plated metal pins with secure clasps maintain the shine and relief of the design over time.
We also include pieces with distinctive decorative elements, such as round and square mosaic tiles integrated into Masonic insignias, adding texture and uniqueness. The choice of material influences the weight and tactile feel, important aspects for collectors who value authenticity. Each Pin in this category has been selected to offer resistance and detail, ensuring that the illustrations and engravings remain sharp after years of exposure or occasional use.
Sets and Collections: Ready-to-Wear Combinations
Sets make it easy to create coherent collections or acquire complete series effortlessly. We offer sets of 4 badges that bring together complementary characters and symbols: for example, combinations of Hermione with a book, hat, and the broomstick version of Hermione; Harry packs with Hedwig and his most recognizable elements; and thematic Game of Thrones sets that offer aesthetic continuity. These sets are perfect for those who want a harmonious set or for gifting.
Additionally, sets often include variations in size and finish that allow you to play with placement on jackets, backpacks, or display cases. Buying a set provides visual coherence and makes it easier to organize the collection. If your goal is to start a thematic Pin collection or complement an existing one, sets offer a solid base with pieces that coordinate with each other and maintain a uniform aesthetic line.
Use and Style: How to Wear and Care for Your Pins
Pins are versatile accessories that adapt to different styles: from a subtle touch on a jacket lapel to a striking arrangement on a backpack. For a balanced look, mix small and large Pins, placing them in groups or individually depending on the impact you want. Literary and fantasy-themed pins work well on casual garments; Masonic or Templar badges add a classic air when worn on coats and caps. Experiment with locations and layers to create a visual narrative with your pieces.
Regarding care, avoid prolonged exposure to moisture and perfumes that could affect metal finishes. Use the appropriate clasp for each pin and secure it well to prevent loss. To clean, use a soft, dry cloth; in cases of persistent dirt, a slightly damp cloth followed by immediate drying will help maintain the shine. Store Pins in cases or display cabinets, separating them to avoid rubbing and scratches.
Ideal for Collectors and Gifts: Pieces with History
Pins are an excellent option both for experienced collectors and for beginners. Pieces with symbolism, such as the square and compass or the inscription In Hoc Sino Vinces, provide depth and historical values, while pins from iconic sagas allow fans to gather tangible memories of their favorite stories. Having a mix of commemorative Pins, series, and unique designs enriches any display case or collection box.
Moreover, many Pins work as memorable gifts: a gold Templar Cross Pin or a Masonic insignia with mosaic can be a meaningful present, just like a Harry Potter thematic set for a saga follower. When choosing from the variety of available Pins, think of them as small works that preserve a hobby, a belonging, or a special moment — ideal to show off, collect, or gift with meaning.
What types of Pins does this category include?
The Pins category covers a wide range: pop culture designs (Harry Potter, The Hobbit, Game of Thrones), historical and symbolic badges (Masonic, Templar, St. John’s Cross), commemorative pieces like the 100th Anniversary Pin of the Spanish Legion, and grouped sets of 4 pins. You will also find variations in materials and finishes, from bright gold to aged bronze and enamel, designed for collectors and enthusiasts.
How can I recognize the quality of a Pin?Quality is noticeable in the weight, relief detail, plating uniformity, and enamel precision. Quality Pins have clean edges, firm clasps, and uniform colors without stains. Observe the finish (gold, bronze, enamel), engraving definition, and clasp solidity; these features indicate greater durability and value for collecting. In our online store, you can see detailed images and descriptions of each piece.
What care is recommended to preserve Pins?To preserve your Pins, avoid moisture and prolonged contact with perfumes or chemicals. Clean with a soft, dry cloth; if necessary, use a slightly damp cloth and dry immediately. Store pieces separately in cases or padded boxes to prevent rubbing and marks. Keeping them in display cases with dust control and indirect light will prolong their original appearance and protect metal finishes and enamel.
Are Pins suitable for delicate garments?It depends on the type of garment and pin. Pins with large clasps or robust pieces can damage delicate fabrics like silk or lace, so it is recommended to place them on reinforced areas or use intermediate supports (such as small patches or felt between the pin and fabric). For fine garments, opt for lightweight Pins with soft clasps or display the piece in a case instead of wearing it.
What advantages do Pin sets offer compared to individual purchases?Sets make it easier to create coherent collections and usually gather complementary characters or symbols that visually match. Buying a set guarantees uniformity in size and finish, and is a good way to complete themes (for example, Harry Potter or Game of Thrones sets). Additionally, sets allow you to wear harmonious groupings without the individual search for loose pieces.
Can I display my Pins in display cases or frames?Yes, Pins are ideal for display. Use felt, cork, or neutral fabric panels to secure them with their clasps and prevent movement. Frames with padded backgrounds allow organizing by theme or series and protect from dust. For valuable pieces, consider display cases with locks and indirect lighting; this preserves their integrity and showcases them with a professional aesthetic in your home or exhibition collection.
What do the Masonic and Templar symbols present in some Pins mean?Pins with Masonic and Templar motifs reflect historical traditions and symbolism: the square and compass represent morality and balance in Masonic iconography; inscriptions like In Hoc Sino Vinces and Templar crosses evoke military and religious heritage from past eras. These pieces are appreciated by collectors interested in symbolism, history, and emblems with cultural meaning, and are available in our online store for those wishing to incorporate that dimension into their collection.
