Pineapple Copper Lapel Pin

The pineapple is a sign of being welcome. Trade routes between the early American world and the Caribbean were very dangerous to traverse. Being able to get back from the treacherous journey in one piece, and bringing back pineapples with you, meant a real victory.  If you were welcomed to someone’s house with a coveted pineapple, that is a sign that the host had pulled out all the stops and was offering you all they had to give.  The pineapple has been a sign of hospitality ever since.  Our pineapple pin is hand cast in solid, lead free pewter and then dipped in copper.  All of our hospitality and fruit pins arrive packaged on our signature presentation card, making them ready for gift-giving!
