Moon gazing Hare Brooch in Silver Pewter with Pink Quartz by coatiMonday

Shared by Owl and Cat in the Jewellery


Product Description:

This lovely brooch has been handmade in lead-free pewter and depicts the hare of legend gazing up at a rose quartz moon. The stone has been mounted on a pink background to deepen the colour. It measures 38mm across and has a 25mm pin with safety catch on the reverse. Gift boxed (may differ from that shown).

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.
