Turkey Premium Pin – Pewter Lapel Pin, Made in USA

Often referred to as the "Gobbler" or "Tom," the Turkey is a large and iconic bird known for its distinct fan-shaped tail, wattled neck, and remarkable gobbling call. Domesticated Turkeys, such as the Broad Breasted White, are bred for their meat, while Wild Turkeys are prized game birds. These birds are native to North America and have been an important part of Thanksgiving feasts for generations. Male Turkeys, called Toms, are recognized by their vibrant plumage and the fleshy wattle that hangs from their necks. They also sport long spurs on their legs, used for defense and mating displays. Female Turkeys, known as Hens, are smaller and typically less colorful. Turkeys are ground-dwelling birds with strong legs and are capable of short, powerful flights. They forage for food, including acorns, seeds, insects, and plants, using their sharp beaks to peck and scratch at the ground. Turkeys are social birds, often seen in flocks, and their distinctive gobbling is a hallmark of the American wilderness. Whether on the dinner table or in the wild, the Turkey holds a special place in American culture and cuisine.

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.
