Enamelled Brooch

Brooch is part of a project entitled Fragility, inspired by the Great Barrier Reef. It is a series of work that uses enamelling to express the ephemeral beauty and richness of this hidden world, very vulnerable in our times of climate change. Hand formed in copper mesh, then worked with enamels in a less traditional and more experimental in approach, the brooch's enamelled work rests on walnut wood (natural and ebonized), attached to a sterling silver frame.
