<p>[QUOTE=&quot;wlwhittier, post: 10354807, member: 76316&quot;]Google Image search shows many similar pair, variously called Chinese hair-pins...or French meat skewers. These are ~4 3/4&quot; long without counting chain links, ~1/8&quot; max diameter; chain loops are ~3/8-7/16&quot; diameter, welded; total weight 26.4 grams. The pins are unmarked, but arguing against them being plated is that they are hand hammered into their tapered, almost-round form. I have no recollection of when or where I acquired them, but until yesterday they were nearly black with tarnish. </p><p>I can understand an&#039; accept the hair-pin possibility; but I have a hard time picturing the circumstances for their use as meat skewers. Any thoughts or suggestions will be most welcome; Thanks for lookin&#039;!</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]521080[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]521081[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]521082[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
