This lovely brooch has been handmade in lead-free pewter and depicts the hare of legend gazing up at a genuine moonstone moon. It measures 45 x 32mm and has a 25mm pin with safety catch on the reverse. Gift boxed.
Each pewter piece has been individually made by hand (not cast) to my own design. A pattern is raised on a sheet of pewter, then the raised area is filled. The item is then mounted on a rigid base,chemically patinated, then polished.Modern pewter is lead-free and after patination has a shiny,almost reflective,finish.It does not blacken like silver and can be brightened, if necessary,with a smear of metal polish and a buffing with a soft cloth.
