A barn owl is captured in softly layered textiles, with dimension built through stitching and paint. The resulting brooch is light, flexible and full of bird-inspired detail.
Created in Vikki Lafford Garside’s studio in Witney, Oxfordshire. Layers of fabric are machine embroidered and hand painted to build a three-dimensional effect. Soft felt backs the reverse and sealed edges help prevent fraying. The result is lightweight, soft and flexible.
It can be pinned to a favourite coat, cardigan, scarf or bag for a little bird-inspired detail.
Each piece is individually made; small variations in colour, stitching and painted detail are part of its character.
Details - Brooch wingspan: 9 cm from wing tip to wing tip. - Materials: cotton, felt. - Fastening: brooch pin. - Packaging: 9 cm × 9 cm gift box.
