A small spray of forget-me-nots

Soft blue flowers gather along a fine gilded branch. Their pale centres bring a little light to a dark coat or a plain scarf. A small piece with its own quiet character.

THE DESIGN

Delicate flowers with precise metalwork

What makes this brooch appealing is its scale and balance. The flowers sit at different angles and sizes, linked by slender gilded branches. Soft blue enamel contrasts with warm-toned silver. It works beautifully on a lapel, knit or scarf without feeling too formal.
