A beautiful, unique piece of art you can wear!
Our Leopard Shark Pin
Made in Washington and Idaho by a team of three U.S. artists, these high-quality pins or tie tacks are unique. Each exquisitely detailed piece is cast in pewter and painted by hand. The finish is extremely smooth and shiny, as you can see by the highlights. Each pin is secured by two sturdy tacks on the back so it doesn't skew sideways or turn upside down, and the finished product is not only gorgeous, but satisfyingly substantial in weight. They can be used as lapel pins, hat pins, tie tacks, and more. These collectible animal pins are heirloom quality, and the details are so realistic, they are found in museum gift shops and bought by organizations in need of the perfect animal to represent their group. In fact, if you're interested in having the name of your organization put on an item, write to us for details. We can also get this design for you in pewter finish, bronze plate, silver plate, or 24-karat gold plate (ask about prices). You can find more fish and animals by the same artists listed on our Hand-Painted Jewelry page.
The leopard shark pin or tie tack measures about 1 3/4 inches long by about 5/8 of an inch tall. Be sure to see our other shark jewelry.
About Leopard Sharks
The Leopard Shark is so named for its distinctive dark brown saddles and splotches on a silver to dark gray background. They are found in the coral reefs of the Pacific Ocean where they feed on crustaceans, worms and small fish. They range in size from 3-6 feet and can live 25 years.
