Handmade Sterling Silver Filigree Bow Brooch

$46.50
Handcrafted sterling silver filigree bow brooch. Would look lovely on a coat or jacket during the winter months. I used three types of silver wire to make this bow. A flat wire to form the pattern, a very fine double wire which is twisted and flattened for the filigree filling, and another twisted wire to finish the edges.


Aquamarine Chalkboard Brooch by SticksAndTomes

Wear your heart on your lapel!  This little brooch has a secret: It's a mini chalkboard!  The perfect place to write a little greeting or scribble a small doodle to go with your outfit.  It's made from a fallen birch limb and measures 1.5" long (not including the beads).  The chalkboard portion has been trimmed with a trendy aquamarine border and the bottom has been adorned with dangles of citrine, plum quartz and light green glass beads.  It's been finished with a coordinating felt round and brooch backing. 


Antique Victorian Cameo Brooch

This Beautiful Finely Detailed Antique Carved Shell Cameo Brooch from the turn of the century has a hidden bale so that it can be worn as a Pendant too. The Cameo is set in a Beautiful & Ornate Gold Filled Frame, with lace-like filigree work, which is accented with decorative embellishments at the corners. The Master Carver is a skilled Artist and presents a right facing portrait of a lovely Lady. She has wavy hair, which is gathered at the back. Her face is smiling and she seems happy. Her bodice drapes gracefully in multiple layers. In the pictures you can see how nicely dimensional she is. There are no cracks or chips on this superior quality shell cameo.
