Evening Republican, Volume 16, Number 190, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 9 August 1912 — SMALLER HATPINS COMING IN [ARTICLE]
SMALLER HATPINS COMING IN
Are Now Seen In Moderate Size and Modified Form, of Gold, Silver and Coral. From the extremely large hatpins of the past season there has been a gradual return to those of more convenient shapes and sizes. Both the long, narrow pins and the broad, flat pins have been entirely deposed by the pins of moderate size and modified form. Hatpins with heads quite round, disk shaped, or of small ellipses and j>ear shapes are in highest favor, and many beautiful new designs and< combinations of materials are to be seen In the fashionable Jewelry shops. Here is one of heavy gold, in that rich old-gold color, set with fiery green tourmalines that dance and sparkle in the light. Another is set with a stud of pink coral that is almost covered by the inclosing gold, the stone showing through the openwork pattern of the metal. Lovely pins there are in silver, too. One of these holds a piece of turquoise matrix that is of remarkable beanty, and another has a most distinctive note in its deep-toned lapislazuli.
