This is a great little accent -- perfect little gift for a new abby or office mate. Measures 6 inches and opens -- although point is not very sharp. Thanks for looking and please be sure to check out my other listings. I have a few available so be sure to check the quantity. This offer is for one (1) safety pin. If you choose to buy more than one, please do not pay until I have calculated the combines shipping and sent you an invoice :)
