Description

This beautiful brooch is made with copper, enamel paint, and a beautiful pearl. It's journey was quite long and complex, starting with a partial mold of a drawer handle, which was then electroformed (plated with a thick layer of copper). I then took the electroformed piece and decked it with copper (the flat piece on the back) that had been etched with a lace pattern. Following that, I fabricated the sterling brooch findings and painted the whole thing using enamel paints. Then the brooch pin and pearl were added.

Although it may look robust, this piece is fairly delicate in that the paint may be prone to wear and tear. It is fairly light and can be worn with a variety of materials and fashions.
