CHARLES LAPEL PIN

The black flower has a nice matte finish that contrasts beautifully with the glossy mother-of-pearl leaf. I was worried it might look too bulky, but at 3 1/2 inches it's the perfect size for a suit lapel.

The mother-of-pearl leaf catches the light beautifully, adding just the right amount of contrast to the black flower. I've worn it with both a blazer and a denim jacket, and it works surprisingly well with both.

The black flower center has a nice texture that stands out against the white mother-of-pearl leaf. I've worn it with both a blazer and a denim jacket, and it adds just the right amount of personality. The 3½-inch length is perfect for a modern lapel.
