Thank you for looking...

The dragonflies that visit our garden pond are always exciting to see - the bright jewel-like colour and the delicate wings. Busy and fierce looking, armoured warriors...

Full description

Hand embroidered textile brooch featuring an emperor dragonfly with silver thread wings.

Wearable art that would enhance clothing, coat or hat.

This detailed study of a dragonfly resting on some reeds is stitched by hand onto fabric scraps with embroidery threads, then edged with dark green velvet ribbon to give it structure and a touch of luxury. The wings are stitched with silver thread which catches the light just like real dragonfly wings! There is a brooch back pin with a safety catch on the back to keep it secure. It measures just over 3cm x 5.5cm.

It's been photographed in natural light but remember that screens vary.

An ideal gift, especially for a nature watcher or a gardener.

Designed by Sylvie McCracken in Pembrokeshire
