Jewelry Findings: Headpin Vermeil (Gold Plated Silver) 28 ga (0.321mm) (0.5mm) w/ ball end, 2.25in. These headpins are very reasonable priced. They are thin enough to go through most Freshwater Pearl holes. The ball end is a very nice way to finish jewelry, no need for an extra bead. Due to bundling of the headpins while goldplating the silver will be uncoated at some spots on the shank. Please allow for discards at this price.
