Character Ear Hat Mystery Set 2 - Tiana

This charming pin is part of the Character Ear Hat Mystery Set 2, released in 2013 at Walt Disney World and Disneyland Resort. The design features a stylized Mickey Mouse ear hat inspired by Tiana from the 2009 animated film The Princess and the Frog. The hat is beautifully crafted with a lotus flower centerpiece and lily pad designs on the ears, perfectly capturing the aesthetic of Tiana's bayou home and her transformation into a frog. As an Open Edition pin, it was a staple for many collectors during its release period, allowing fans of the Princess and the Frog to easily collect their favorite character. The series is well-regarded among collectors for its creative interpretation of iconic Disney characters through the lens of wearable park merchandise. Tiana herself remains a highly popular character, representing Disney's first African American princess. The pin is rendered in a soft, monochromatic green palette that emphasizes the floral and botanical motifs central to Tiana's story. It serves as a fantastic example of the imaginative character-themed ear hat series that became a hallmark of Disney pin trading in the early 2010s.
