Description
Did you know that the game of golf has been around so long that its origins are a bit unclear?! It is generally agreed, however, that modern golf started in Scotland around the Middle Ages and gained popularity across the UK during the late 1800s. This sterling silver golf hat pin is a perfect example of the Victorian-era obsession with the game. Sleek and simple, some sweet fan once adorned her hat with this fantastic silver club. The pin is quite long and ends with a perfectly rendered little iron, I believe. Stamped Sterling and with what is perhaps an unreadable maker's mark. The perfect gift for your favorite golfer.
