Description
 
These great Peshlakai pins c.1940’s are both unique and cute. Fine stamp work graces both the wings and body with delicate setting of stones. They appear to be horseflies, rather than bees. Beautifully crafted these wonderful pins are not hallmarked but have the exact same stamp as found on the hallmarked butterflies. Purchased at the same time and location. Stamped sterling.

These wonderful pieces were acquired with a collection of several, Fred Peshlakai pieces that were purchased directly from Fred's shop on Olvera St. in Los Angeles in the early 1940's. More information is available on provenance.

The horse fly pins measure 1 1/4" long by 3/4" wide. A matching set of pins are also being offered for sale.
