Based on a 7th-8th century copper alloy Pictish brooch found in Auldearn, Highlands (COTT 161/13) now in Nairn Museum. Since the original brooch has lost it's pin I have used one from my Clough brooch reproduction as it is the correct size.
If you want this in other materials email me at caledonianforge@gmail.com to ask for a quote! We are always open to alter and change any of our pieces to suit your tastes. In the listing the piece might look darker than the finished piece. We artificially darken our silver pieces with liver of sulphur so that the details will show up in photographs but as standard the finished piece will be shiny and polished. If you'd prefer us to darken it then please let us know and we will happily do this for you.
This has been carved by myself from wax and then sand cast in a similar method to the original and finished with a mixture of power tools and traditional hand tools like files and saws.
All our packaging is 100% paper. No plastic at all.
