Bonnet pins

Post by fh2014 »

Can anyone recommend some NOT SH*T bonnet pins?

Bought a quick set off trademe, cheap and nasty. Also the steel used in the pin itself looks like a rubbish alloy. Liked the recessed look but might have to go to standard style (with a new bonnet :roll: )

These ones here are a couple months old.. notice the crack top left too..

Some one recently asked this question (specifically about the recessed ones) and some one else replied with a good answer about the original manufacturer of this style. I can't remember any of the details, but if you do a search of the forum you should find it.
