My original pin was all emeralds with pearl points. Most of the women in my chapter had pearls with emerald points, so it was unusual. It was lost in a recent move, but I am still hopeful to find it. It has been mine for 35 years, so I miss it! It had all my dangles on it too, and I miss those too!

My father and my husband bought me a white gold all diamond pin since I was a chapter advisor and no longer had one to wear. It is beautiful, and I wear it to work about once a week.

In addition, I purchased a vintage 1942 pin from my chapter on ebay, and have acquired several other vintage pins of a variety of types. The plain ones are as beautiful as the jeweled.

I am surprised to hear that some chapters don't inform new initiates of their options in ordering a pin. The white gold pearl with diamond points is a particular favorite of mine and I would love to see one in person.

Happy Badge Day!
