Victorian Shawl Pin

This shawl/sweater pin is my first project using aluminum wire,
and I am pleased with the result. As with many of the pins I have
been making, I did not draw it out first, but let the shape evolve
and embellish from there.

Lovely pin
by: zoraida

What a lovely pin/brooch. The flowing lines and curves and different textures in the other elements are beautifully combined.

Thanks!

Thank you, Zoraida. Your comment means a lot, since I am an admirer of your skills and beautiful work -- you are definitely an inspiration!

Gorgeous!

I haven't yet worked with aluminum wire - and your brooch here is a gorgeous example of what can be done with it! I love the combination of old-fashioned style plus interesting details - and of course the wonderfully curvy lines of this piece.

Thank you so much for sharing it with us!
