*** A brooch is a pin, but a pin is not a brooch.
A brooch is large and usually beaded and worn on a womans front side, but pins can be any size and any shape.

A brooch usually has a connotation of being a larger vintage estate piece. A pin is usually more informal. A brooch sometimes can be used as a pendant or to hold a scarf or piece of clothing.
