Description

The listing, antique sweet large antique handcut cobalt pushpins pp-6 has ended.

Wow these are awesome! we have other sets of three up as well too. . these would have been used in victorian houses putting up small pictures. you would gently twist them into the picture railing untill secure, then the picture would be hung on a lovely piece of cord, or fabric, or ribbon, and then hung on one of these. a really cool find. . note the pressed glass design, and the roughness around the edges. these across the top are about the size of a quarter!
These were made by HEIDT Glass Co. N.Y. and recovered from their warehouse.
HEIDT also used to make pressed glass for Tiffany Studios.
