Australiana - Emu Brooch
This brooch is handmade in my studio and features industrial magnets which are super strong. Your clothes will never have holes ever again (up to 1kg pulling power per magnet).
The versatility of the magnets makes this brooch an awesome scarf pin, shoe decoration, hat pin, jacket pin, or hair accessory. So get creative!!
Not a fan of magnets, no problem, choose the Traditional Barrel Clasp Pin option instead.
Made from recycled Copper, this Emu brooch will add a playful element to any outfit.
Each design starts from a sketched drawing. It is then transferred to the metal using a template I've traced around and the line texture is hammered into the metal. Each piece is then precisely hand cut using my hand saw and a super fine saw blade.
The edges are then filed smooth, all surfaces are sanded to remove any scratches, and polished to the final finish.
The metal on the back of the brooch is then wiped clean using metho and the industrial magnet or traditional barrel clasp is added to complete the design.
This brooch measures approximately 65mm tall and 60mm wide and is very lightweight.
Each brooch comes in a natural finish, adding to the character and charm.
If you would like to keep its bright natural finish you will need to regularly clean the brooch using Brasso or a Scourer (see cleaning tips for more information).
PLEASE NOTE: If you have a pacemaker then this brooch is NOT suitable for you as it could interfere with the machine's performance. The brooch can also be a choking hazard for small children so please take care!
All Meekz jewellery comes with complimentary gift wrapping.
