This is a humorous handmade brooch/pin made to look like the head of an older leprechaun smoking a pipe.  

It is so fun with its googly eyes and glasses.  If you look closely, he has pointed ears coming out of the tufts of curly hair. His pipe is made of a small piece of wood and a green bead.  

He looks a little bit like Harpo Marx, a comedic actor and one of the Marx Brothers from the old black/white movies.  

It is a soft sculpture brooch made by stuffing a nylon stocking.  The pin back is a safety pin.  

Note: When doing my ebay research on this brooch, I found almost nothing like this brooch.  The closest item I found was a similar Santa head brooch.  If you like this brooch, you may like the Santa one as well.  The eBay listing is titled "Vintage UNIQUE Soft Sculpture Santa Pin Panty Hose Googly Eyes Folk Art Country".

Measurements: 
Height: 3-3/4 inches
Width: 3 inches 

Condition: This is a cute homemade brooch.  It is made of a stuffed nylon stocking and there are a couple faint runs near the left eye. See last photo. 
 Otherwise it is in great condition.  This comes from a pet free and smoke free home.
