I am currently in china and there is an abundance of cheap hairpins that could sell for a lot in the US.

You have a nice collection Karen. I also have an interest in hairpins, only the east Asian kind though they fascinate me. Some are truly ancient, up to 1000 years old!

Love the Hatpin . I’ve been making Victorian Hats and want to start collecting the Hatpins but as you said They do and are
very expensive. I’m looking for one now as a gift for an 85 year old Women whom want want so I’m trying my luck surfing
and found your site. Want to tell you Hi and good luck on the collectable.
