Front Description
Part of a framed set of 5 pins from Tokyo Disneyland/ Tokyo Disney Resort for New Year 2003 (#17344). The base of the pin is cloisonne style, whilst the top layer is coating type (but thicker and higher quality than other coating pins). The entire set is absolutely beautiful, with each pin designed to reflect some aspect of Japanese New Year tradition.
This particular pin is of Chip and Dale: The base is a "koma" or spinning top. The top layer has Chip playing with the koma and Dale playing with a "taketombo" which is a propeller on a stick. (you hold the stick between your palms, rub furiously and then let it go - it flies upwards)
