This is a 3cm long hatpin with a looped end.

Hat pins are functional and sometimes decorative pins for holding a hat to the head, usually by the hair.

Another application for this finding could be for creating drops, dangles and other components, since it has a very fine gauge. It is a good partner for beads with especially small holes, including pearls and gemstones. Pins provide a decorative, bead-like end (or starting point) for the components you make with them. Simply choose a head size larger than the hole in your bead or other finding. The most popular choice for most applications, 1/2-hard pins stand up well in most jewelry styles and still allow the wire to be formed as needed—then hold their shape reasonably well. Choose an appropriate pin thickness based on your design and the hole size of your beads or findings so that they will be held securely in place without wobble or risk of loss.
