Tiny Owl Brooch Handmade in Silver Pewter

Shared by Owl and Cat in the Jewellery


Product Description:

Little owl brooch. This cute little brooch has been hand-made in modern lead-free pewter. Measuring 25 x 29mm, it has a 20mm pin with safety catch on the reverse. Comes gift boxed. A great gift for Christmas.


Each pewter piece has been individually made by hand (not cast) to my own design. A pattern is raised on a sheet of pewter, then the raised area is filled. The item is then mounted on a rigid base,chemically patinated, then polished.Modern pewter is lead-free and after patination has a shiny,almost reflective,finish.It does not blacken like silver and can be brightened, if necessary,with a smear of metal polish and a buffing with a soft cloth.
