The Sleepy Dormouse Kinetic Brooch
£1,350.00
The Sleepy Dormouse, in her hand crocheted red gold nest, is hidden by protective bramble leaves. A charming, secretive brooch for all nature lovers.
Each leaf is hand crafted in 9ct gold, wiith a soft brushed finish to mimic the softness of new leaves. The top leaf hides your dormouse as she sleeps, so when you wear your brooch, she is your secret, kept safe until you choose to open the bramble leaf to reveal her in her crocheted gold nest. Snug as a, well, dormouse in a nest! I like to think this little one is fast asleep bescause she's stuffed herself full of the juicy blackberries that surround her. The scattered Indian rubies gleam from juicy gold berries, sprouting from a criss crossing sterling silver frame.
This is a truly special wildlife jewellery collection. Each little dormouse is cast from the original 6mm sculpture, which was hand sculpted with a sewing needle. You can see the make on Instagram. And it's wildlife jewellery with a purpose as 10% of all profits from the Cobnut Collection go directly to British wildlife conservation projects around the UK. You can nominate your prefered charity in the drop down menu, or if you prefer leave it to me to choose. Either way, by choosing a Cobnut piece, you are helping British wildlife to thrive.
The ideal luxury gift for any wildlife lover - we're not always covered in mud you know! With fine wildlife jewellery you can keep a bit of that magic of your wild adventures with you everyday.
