Pinpoint


Things have been kinda crazed the past few weeks, so unfortunately, I have neglected to post any new jewelry finds.

A month or so back, a friend asked if I knew of any designers creating brooches. I went on a search and found the brooch or "pin" has sadly descended into extinction. My grandmother's coats and sweaters were always adorned with a beautiful or whimsical brooch, but nowadays, you rarely see people donning them. However, I did just come across this bronzed lotus brooch by St. Erasmus. What appealed about this one is its amorphous shape and materials. It looks like molten rock at first glance or meshed stones. The pin is actually acrylic flowers covered in crochet and topped with Swarovski crystals.
