Dungeness Crab Pin
The Dungeness Crab Pin celebrates the king of West Coast crabs—those beautiful specimens with reddish-brown shells that turn bright orange when cooked. Named for a town on Washington's Olympic Peninsula, Dungeness crabs are prized for sweet, delicate meat that needs nothing but butter. They molt as they grow, each shedding revealing a larger, harder shell beneath.
Perfect for crabbers who know the best spots, seafood lovers who crack shells with practiced efficiency, or Pacific Northwest residents who measure seasons by crab openers. Dungeness means winter holidays, family gatherings, newspaper-covered tables piled with shells. Makes a great gift for someone whose best meals involve a crab cracker and melted butter.
Choose from multiple finishes to match your style. Built with materials sourced from long-established U.S. suppliers and finished by hand in Washington. It's wearable art that celebrates the West Coast's most prized crustacean.
