Mars Pin
The planet Mars appears red to the naked eye under certain conditions, which is probably why the ancient Greeks, and then later the Romans chose to associate it with their god of war. We can learn from modern astronomers that Mars gets it's color from a large quantity of iron on its surface. This is fascinating, considering iron is exactly where blood gets it's color from as well! Our mars pin is a burnt, orange-red color, and it's surface is marred with lines, representing the canyons which are part of mars' landscape. The pinkish white at the top and bottom mark Mars' polls, which contain frozen water in the form of ice.
Featuring gold plating and hard enamel, this Mars pin has a light, sturdy feel to it. The pin measures .63’’ (1.59 cm) across, and comes with one post on the back, as well as a rubber clutch. It's the perfect size to be a board filler, and it has the Walking on Light logo stamped on the back.
