View through Europeana Collections
Formed by a pin of circular section, with a head that presents three filigree spheres. The central sphere is the largest, with a rosette of twelve petals, each of which is filled with thread spirals representing the nerves of a leaf and incorporates a smooth ribbon to mark its diameter. The other two are joined together by a double chain of oval links ending in two filigree spheres. Part of the chain is missing from one of the needles.
