Corgi Pin – Pewter Lapel Pin, Made in USA

Known for its short stature, strong build, and playful personality, the Corgi is a beloved breed originating from Wales. There are two types of Corgis: the Pembroke Welsh Corgi, distinguished by its docked tail, and the Cardigan Welsh Corgi, which has a long tail. Both types feature a low-to-the-ground profile, large, upright ears, and expressive, fox-like faces. Corgis were originally bred for herding, and they still possess a strong work ethic and intelligence, making them highly trainable. Despite their small size, they are surprisingly agile and strong. Corgis are known for their friendly and affectionate nature, making them great companions and family pets. They are particularly good with children and adaptable to various living situations, whether it's an apartment or a house with a yard. Regular exercise is important for this energetic breed, as is proper training to manage their sometimes stubborn temperament. Their thick double coat requires regular grooming, but their endearing personalities and manageable size make them a popular choice for dog lovers.

Craft & construction

Built to stay put. Our pins have two posts and clutches which hold it flat and ensure a spin-free application wherever you display it. It solves a common pin complaint. The 1/4-inch steel tacks are long enough to pass through most fabrics, about 1/4 inch, yet short enough to sit flush. And each clutch seats into a small groove on the post with a firm, satisfying click — haptic feedback that tells you it's locked, and a detail cheaper pins skip.

Hand-painted, marine-grade finish. Each hand-painted piece is carefully painted by an artisan right in our studio in Port Gamble, WA. The proprietary multistep process includes priming each piece followed by meticulous painting by hand in acrylics with fine detail work to bring the item to life with incredible detail. The final step adds a coating of marine-grade epoxy — a hard, clear finish that protects the artwork so our product can be used on a boat, outside, or other conditions highly resistant to fading or wear.

Certified American pewter. The antiqued finish is completely safe to touch — and the craft behind it has been refined over three decades. Each batch of pewter that arrives at our shop in Port Gamble, WA from an American supplier comes with a lab test showing the material is lead free.

Ready to give. Every item arrives attached to a backing card and sealed in plastic — clean, protected, and presentable as a gift the moment it arrives.
