Glass headed pins have a head made of glass, not plastic. A plastic head can melt when in contact with an iron, then you get a plastic stain in your fabric that won't come out. That is why we only sell pins with glass heads or the steel headed pins. Steel headed pins have a small steel head, also called headless pins.

Glass head pins are the standard pins, our number one seller! Great pins to start out with, then to extend your supplies with thinner and longer pins by Clover or Prym.
