Hand Made Penannular Brooches

Available in a range of sizes and designs too wide to show or describe, tell me what you want and I'll do my best to make it! Every piece is hand shaped and forged from golden bronze (the light ones) or red phosphor bronze (the heavy ones), and decorated with hand stamping so no two are ever alike. I make them from tiny (2 cm) to massive (10 cm).

The thickness of the pin depends on the density of the cloth you plan to put it though, the weight it has to hold and what looks right in proportion to the ring.

Pins can be fine (about 1 mm, suitable for ornamental pieces on modern clothing); thin (about 1.5mm, suitable for pinning a dress); medium (about 2mm, suitable for a light to medium cloak); or thick (about 3mm, for a really heavy cloak)

How To Wear a Penannular Brooch

1) Move the pin around the ring till the point can be dropped though the gap in the ring

2) Pin horizontally through cloth about the width of the ring

3) Bring the point of the pin up again through the gap in the ring, and turn the ring around to lock the pin into place.
