Cosmos Brooches - Fine & Sterling Silver, Glass, Agate, Stainless Steel
Continuing my exploration of enamel combined with other materials. These surfaces are layered white and black vitreous enamel with fine silver foil and shavings embedded within them. A tiny smattering of slighlty blue recycled glass as well for good measure. The result is a surface with depth reminiscent of starscapes and charcoal.
The acompanying elements build on personal symbology, that acts as a narrative through-line for my expanded practice.
The forms/shapes themselves are inspired by historical jewellery.
