Suffragette Jabot Pin, .
Suffragette Themed Jabot Pin Blue Glass Silver Plate Brooch Suffragettes: Modern Reproduction
(Portrayer Publishers, 2020).
Beautiful suffragette-themed, jewelled Jabot pin brooch, the perfect gift. Modern reproduction, brand new and art-deco in style. Main gem: imitation sapphire. Secondary gems: imitation diamonds. Dimensions: 57mm long and 12mm in breadth at widest point (where main jewel is). With safety pin and chain, and the famous suffragette slogan "Deeds Not Words" engraved on the rear of the main shaft. (These words are the wearer's secret commitment to the "Votes for Women" cause!) Presented with a free purple velvet gift-pouch, which is in turn displayed within an attractive zip-lock gift-bag, clear at the front and shiny silver at the rear. Jabot pins were first used to adorn, or fasten, a dangling ruffle known as a jabot worn by men (on shirts) and women (on dresses) during the 1600s. They became important as an article of jewellery from the Edwardian period onwards - the heyday of the British suffragette movement - and flourished through into the 1930s as a special piece of Art Deco decoration. Jabot pins were worn on cloche hats, lapels, shoulders and handbags and were often adorned with jewels. New, fine. pp. Order No. NSBK-C16006
Keywords: B0FHBWLWSC, jabot pins, badges, badge, brooch, brooches, pins, pin, suffragettes, Votes for Women, history, social history, Edwardian, jewellery, jewelry, ephemera, memorabilia, suffragette,
