Silver Orchid Flower Pin - Handmade Silver Flower Brooch

The magical Orchid - from the beautiful British Marsh Orchids in meadows to the tropical Orchids suspended in air, with no need for soil - there are around 28,000 different species worldwide. Sterling Silver flower & stem with a silver plated push-on stopper. The Orchid flower is 14mm diameter & the pin is about 55mm long. The inner petals curve inwards, giving them a sculptural feel & the finish is a soft polish rather than a high shine, highlighting the natural textures. I made the original Orchid by hand-sawing sheet metal shapes & soldering them together in stages. Repeats of this orchid are cast into silver using the ancient art of lost-wax casting in London. Then the orchid castings are soldered onto a hand carved silver pin back in my Pembrokeshire workshop. How to wear it: This pin can be fastened onto fabric with a simple push-on stopper. You could wear this on a lapel, a scarf, tie or a structured hat. Rock Rose Jewellery is handmade in Pembrokeshire, Wales. Gift-boxed & ready send out within 2 working days.
