Perhaps you tie flies and have often thought it would be wonderful to give a gift to special friends and acquaintances that represented your passion for fly tying. For those friends that fly fish, naturally a box of your own well tied flies is appropriate. But what about those who don't fly fish but admire your work nonetheless?
Why not choose the finest available brooch pin blanks, the same ones that Ian James uses? It's easy to tie your favorite pattern on one one of these blanks. Designed for the discerning flytyer, each pin is hand crafted using a Mustad hook formed and fitted with a rust proof clasp. During every step of the process, great care is taken to ensure the quality of the finished pin is of the highest standard.
The original brooch pin manufacturing system was developed in Cornwall, England by Mr. Bill Goodman. He handed the system down to Ian James. His commitment to excellence and attention to detail is found in each brooch.
