Hand painted silk and leather leaf brooch – Field Maple

Description

Hand-painted silk and leather Field Maple leaf brooch, with jewellery clip. The leaf measures approximately 8cm x 8cm, 3.25″ x 3.25″, each leaf is individually hand-painted so they vary slightly in colour and texture.

How this was made

After observation of real-life autumn field maple leaves, collected on my everyday walks, I hand-painted silk satin to create the upper layer of the leaf. Then after backing each leaf soft glove leather and attaching a jewellery clip, each leaf has been individually hand-tooled using traditional millinery flower making tools.
