Pippin comes from a large family. At his sitting he said it was lovely to get such individual attention. He also told me he likes apples and big band music, especially Duke Ellington.

Pippin is hand-painted with a tiny brush on to a pebble, with added detail in fine pen. The brooch is varnished and securely attached to the safety pin with ribbon and material. Pippin is certainly splash-proof, but it's perhaps best not to wear him whilst swimming!

The pebble is approximately 22mm x 15mm and is also pictured next to a penny.

Thank you for looking - and please feel free to ask any questions!
