This Grasshopper pin is a perfect gift for insect collectors and bug lovers. Each pin is double tacked (military style) to avoid spinning. We only use strong neodymium magnets for a powerful grip. Proudly crafted by American Artists. After casting, each piece is hand finished and polished for a beautiful antique look. Satisfaction Guarantee! Grasshoppers also are known as locusts and have powerful hind legs that are used for escaping any threat with a powerful jump. Throughout human history swarms of locusts/grasshoppers have devasted farms and crops. It only fits then that grasshoppers and locust are also a food source for billions of people around the world.
