Delicately crafted this sterling silver clothes peg charm has a vintage design based on the classic 1980’s wooden clothes peg! With real working mechanisms you can open and close it like a real clothespin. This trusty design has stood the test of time! Starting off as a dolly peg in 1809 it was used to hang up clothes on a washing line for drying, but it was thought that the local fishermen were actually the first to introduce the peg to clip the nets to the rigging. The humble peg is a practical and ingenious invention which carries overtones of ancient mystery and symbolises a beacon of hope, holding everything together.
