Title:
Owl Brooch

Handcrafted in the Scottish Borders

Due to the handcrafted nature of our products, pieces may vary slightly to those shown in photographs.

An amiable owl with pretty china chest and wooden bead eyes, he has talons of coiled brass and a gold leaf beak, made from beaten copper and finished in crystalline verdigris. Soldered on the back is a silver-plated traditional bar brooch catch. He is 45mm from head to talons 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.
