Bison Tie Tacks or Hat Pins, Textured with Prairie Grass
Bison tie tacks or hat pins are textured with different prairie grasses: switchgrass, ticklegrass, and buffalograss. Each bison is oxidized, and the grass highlights are polished to bring out the rich texture of the grass.
Select grass texture in the drop-down menu to see a close-up photo of each bison. Select your choice of grass before adding to your cart.
The pins in photos have sold. Please allow slight variations as these are handmade.

Care information
Care information
Your order will come with a polishing cloth to touch up your jewelry pieces. I oxidize (tarnish) and polish the highlights of most of my jewelry pieces to bring out the texture of the prairie grasses and wildflowers. This oxidation will come off if polished with the cloth. When polishing pieces, polish only the raised surfaces to keep the dark oxidation.
Don't wear jewelry while swimming in a chlorinated pool or hot tub. Be aware that your piece can be damaged by some physical activities.
My Guarantee:
Each piece is made with care. If for any reason a purchase is not what you expected, please contact me for directions on a return. I do think you'll be pleased though.
