Every hand embroidered brooch is made with real gold metal embroidery thread, silk thread, silk charmeuse, and finished with gold plated stainless steel bar locking pinbacks. 

Select embroideries have embellishments with garnet, sapphire, tourmaline, natural zircon, and fresh water pearls. Others have accents with fuzzy silk chenille thread, gold beads, spangles and accoutrements. Some silk has been hand painted using permanent and non-toxic water based dyes.

For ensured longevity, wear and store your embroidery with care. Like all natural metals, goldwork will darken over time. Keep the metal brightest by storing your artwork out of direct sunlight and protected from dust. When worn be mindful of the intricacy of embroidery, beadwork, and the delicacy of real metal threads.
