Pterodactyl Flying Pewter Pin

The Pterodactyl Flying Pin shows the first vertebrates to achieve powered flight—reptiles that ruled Mesozoic skies with wingspans reaching 33 feet in some species. These weren't dinosaurs but flying reptiles that evolved flight independently, using wings of skin stretched over elongated fourth fingers. They soared over T. rex and Triceratops, the dragons of the dinosaur age made real.

Perfect for dinosaur enthusiasts who love the flyers, paleontology fans fascinated by prehistoric flight, or anyone who appreciates that evolution solved the flight problem multiple independent times. Pterodactyls represent the ancient sky, when reptiles owned the air. Makes an excellent gift for someone whose prehistoric passion extends beyond ground-dwelling dinosaurs.

Choose from multiple finishes to suit your aesthetic. Built with materials sourced from long-established U.S. suppliers and finished by hand in Washington. It's wearable art that brings to life the ancient reptiles that conquered the skies.
