Austerlitz, Black Enamel, Black-Headed Insect Pins
From the Czech Republic. 100 pins/package.
Black enamel, available in all sizes from 000 to 7. With black-coloured heads.
Choice of a particular colour of pin head can be based on individual preference, but also on the specimen being pinned, and the manner of displaying the specimen. Some people prefer the appearance of pins which have black heads. Especially for specimens that are primarily dark/black as the pins are less obvious than the gold-headed pins under these conditions.
A word of caution: some display and storage cases may not accommodate the extra length of size 7 pins. Most notably, they are too long to fit California Academy drawers.
For the sake of brevity, you will find a longer explanation and description in our blog: https://blog.mothandbeetle.com/everything-you-need-to-know-about-insect-pins/
