Artist's Comments

This is one of a pair of Turtle Broaches I am making for a customer. I wanted to get her a picture up ASAP so here is one of the pieces. It will have two holes drilled where the dots are and the two broaches will be attached by two chains when she receives them

This piece is 3" in diameter made of resin impregnated with bronze and pigment and the cabochon is a 12mm Amber. Here's the WIP picture: [link] The back of the "broach" is galvanized wire placed into the resin to form a "bar" across the piece so that it can be sewn to a custom cloak that my customer is making for one of her grove friends.

Thanks for looking, hope you like it!

Woooow. That's awesome. How much does something like that go for? (a custom cloak clasp set)

Thanks for the note! Depending on design and time to work with most of this basic style would be in the $100 range for an original pair plus s/h. Thanks for looking. :)
