Birdie Brooch Handcrafted in the Scottish Borders
Due to the handcrafted nature of our products, pieces may vary slightly to those shown in photographs.
A chirpy little birdie with his pretty china wing, twirled beaded brass tail and tin solder beak. Made from beaten copper and finished in crystalline verdigris. Soldered on the back is a silver-plated traditional bar brooch catch. He is 50mm from beak to tail and comes in a gift box with a signed booklet.
Whilst digging my garden I found old bits of china in the soil, they were like pieces of buried treasure to me. So I started making these little beasties with them using some scraps of copper from my husband’s workshop. Now I search around antique and vintage shops looking for chipped teacups and lonely saucers to supplement my garden finds.
