The Fleur-de-lis is a stylized lily or iris that is an enduring symbol of France. It is often used to represent the French and European monarchs, as a political and dynastic symbol of the French government, a design on coats of arms, and is often associated with the Virgin Mary. The Fleur de lis lapel pin is made from cast pewter, plated in nickel and finely polished to give it a special silver shine. Each pin includes a clutch back and is individually poly bagged.
