Ariel with vine and Flounder in Horseshoe frame - Princesses with Arched Border

This charming pin features the beloved Ariel from Disney's 1989 animated classic 'The Little Mermaid' alongside her loyal companion, Flounder. The duo is framed within an elegant, arched horseshoe-style border, which is intricately decorated with blue vines, seashells, and starfish. Ariel is depicted in her iconic mermaid form with a shimmering glitter-filled tail, adding a touch of magical sparkle to the design. This piece was released in 2006 as part of the popular 'Princesses with Arched Border' series, which was available at both Disneyland Resort and Walt Disney World. As an Open Edition pin, it served as a staple for collectors during that era who were looking to showcase their favorite Disney Princesses. The design captures Ariel’s curious and adventurous spirit, perfectly complemented by Flounder’s expressive, slightly worried demeanor. Because it features two of the most popular characters from the film, this pin remains a nostalgic favorite for long-time collectors and fans of the 'Little Mermaid' franchise alike. The contrasting colors of the blue frame and the vibrant red of Ariel’s hair make for a visually striking display piece in any collection.
