New Gold Enamel Pins: Monstera Leaf + Alocasia Heart Leaf

Monstera Pin + Heart Leaf Pin New gold enamel pins are here! These cuties are based off our leaf jewelry designs. I was going for a jewelry-like type of pin when designing these and I took care in selecting just the right type of finishes so that they fit in with our jewelry collection. I love how the brushed matte antique gold turned out and I love the tactile quality of the recessed enamel. Hope you like them too! Monstera Pin + Heart Leaf Pin
