Description
I love brooches, they are so underrated as a jewellery item. They’re great to wear if you want to add a colour pop to a jacket or outfit and a great alternative to a pendant. This dyed and shaped anodised aluminium oval brooch will add a splash of colour, fun and sophistication to a lapel or jumper.
The three flowers are dyed grey and cut and shaped. The background is dyed lime green and a feather dipped in olive green ink is impressed into the surface. The flowers are secured to the brooch with tiny aluminium rivets and the brooch pin is made with stainless steel and threaded through the brooch securely.
It measures 58 mm in length and 38 mm in width. The brooch is lightweight, stylish and easy to wear and come in a Kraft gift box with a velvet insert.
Some information about anodised aluminium
Anosiding uses acid to create a corrosive and wear resistant layer on top of the metal. The anodic layer is left unsealed allowing the material to be dyed. The dyeing and patterning are my favourite part of the process as there are endless possibilities for colour, pattern, print and texture. This make anodised aluminum a hard wearing and lightweight material for jewellery making and sculpture.
