This lovely 'k' measures

1½ x 2 inches
(3.8 x 5cm)
and has a 1¼ inch steel pin firmly glued on the back.
It is covered in a vintage map of East Dulwich in London.


All of my brooches are one of a kind, made from collaging various bits of vintage paper onto off-cuts of wood and board that otherwise would be thrown away. I laser cut the letters so they are perfectly shaped and sealed at the edges. Each brooch is then given between 2-3 coats of varnish for protection and a super glossy finish. They have been known to survive trips in the washing machine (although such adventures are not recommended).

I try to use as much recycled and reclaimed material in my pieces as possible. This map was badly damaged before I got my hands on it!


*other letters and styles available - convo me if you can't find what you want*
