    Mandolin Pin

    Introducing the Mandolin pin! This beautiful pin is based on a detail from the binding of the Rubáiyát of Omar Khayyám, produced in 1884. 

    Made from durable gold-plated enamel, the Mandolin pin is 42.5mm wide and features two metal clasps closures. Each pin is presented on a gold-foiled backing card. 

    This pin is part of the Treasures: British Library x Mink collaboration. This collection features eight pins designed by Mink, drawn from the archive of the British Library's Treasures Gallery and beyond. These pins are made to be treasured as gems from literary and cultural history.
