Ilyra brooch
Ilyra brooch
A completely unique brooch, handcrafted from a wonderful natural mussel with golden and blue hues and rich organic textures. An extremely rare find, this double shell with barnacles has been preserved intact on the British coast to be discovered and turned by myself into an extraordinary piece of art jewellery, using ancient and contemporary metalsmithing techniques. Electroformed in pure silver to preserve all its beautiful details and plated with 24k yellow gold, the jewel is a one of a kind design, making you the only person to ever own such a treasure. The ultimate combination of luxury and craftsmanship, with the spirit of nature embedded deep inside.
