A very brief history of the pin brooch - an ancient accessory
Brooches have been used since very early in the human history. In fact, the earliest known brooches come from the Bronze Age. While now we generally wear a pin brooch for asthetic reasons only, brooches have for a long time served an important practical purpose as a fastening for clothes - for example cloaks. That does not mean that they served only a practical purpose. Even as a necessary accessory a pin brooch could be heavily decorated with enamel, precious metal or gem stone. For more than a millenium since about 300BC Greeks and Romans combined the practical and decorative functions of the pin brooch. Not only did their pins (called Fibula) serve as cloak fastenings, they were also decorated to reflect the identity of the wearer.
It is great that some things never go out of style and even after centuries of use brooches remain popular and useful accessories.
