Beaver Pins ~ Made in USA

Show your OSU pride with this delightful pin!

Our Painted Beaver Pins

These gorgeous and unusual beaver pins are made in Washington and Idaho by a team of U.S. artists. The high-quality lapel pins or oversized tie tacks are unique. They are exquisitely detailed; the quality of the painting elevates each pin to an item of wearable art. Each one is cast in pewter and painted by hand. You will be delighted with the professional quality and artistic details of your piece of fish jewelry. The finish is extremely smooth and shiny, as you can see by the highlight from the scanner. It is also extremely durable. The pin is secured by two sturdy tacks on the back so it stays upright, and the finished product is not only gorgeous, but satisfyingly substantial in weight. It can be used as a lapel pin, hat pin, tie tack, and more. This collectible animal pin is 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.

About Beavers

Beavers are wonderful swimmers and also great at building dams. The dams they build are mostly used to get easy access to food in the winter time, and are also used for protection againt predators. The dams may be as large as 1,000 ft long, 15 ft high, and 25 ft thick. Not to mention the beaver is also large, a male can weigh up to 55 lbs, and a female beaver can weigh even more! The beaver is so large, that they are the 2nd largest rodent in the world next to the capybara (see stuffed and plastic capybaras in our gift shop).

The Beaver: Mascot of Oregon State University

BEAVER

Mascot* of

OREGON STATE UNIVERSITY

With school about to start, it might be fun to do a series on animals used as school mascots that can also be found at Tapir and Friends online Gift Shop. Let's start with the beaver, since we're located in Oregon, and the beaver is the mascot of Oregon State University. Here you can see all five of the beavers (stuffed and plastic) that we have online for purchase as of this post date.

The beaver was not the OSU's first mascot. It began with a coyote named "Jimmy," progressed to a human mascot, John Richard Newton Bell, a bulldog, and eventually between about 1910 and 1916 to the beaver, a native animal of Oregon. You can read about the interesting evolution of Oregon State University's mascot here.

Meanwhile, what better place to get a toy beaver for a memento, gift, prank, reunion decor and souvenirs, prizes for work well done, or a nice, soft snuggle buddy than from a store that supports wildlife conservation as its main goal?

* Note: This particular stuffed beaver toy is not an offical mascot, but is a lifelike stuffed animal made by Hansa.
