Archaeologists trace safety pin concepts back 9,000 years to Lake Neuchatel finds. From early woven and decorative fibulae in Greece and Rome to Walter Hunt’s 1849 patent, the pin evolved through machine production in 1877 and a drawn metal cap in 1881, with diverse uses from status symbols in Africa to fastening garments and lingerie straps.
