I am proud to introduce brooches to my range!  You have the option of having a magnetic back or pin back to the brooch, it's totally up to you!
For as long as I can remember, I have loved colourful lanterns. Paper lanterns, cellophane lanterns, homemade lanterns, and silk lanterns.  I would see them at Lunar New Year and at the Moon festival.  It was always a time of fun and festivities.
Lanterns symbolise good fortune, and lighting them is said to bring health and happiness.
These particular silk lanterns are unique to my cultural heritage and come from the same region as my grandparents.
The lanterns have been specifically designed to reflect authentic cultural heritage, and is done so with pride.
This brooch been cut from several layers of acrylic, and are carefully pieced together like a puzzle.  The lantern has a champagne gold metallic frame, as well as 'tassel' dangle.  It has inviting pink 'silk' partitions, and there are bamboo and blossom decorative features on the lantern.
The brooch measures 70mm across.  Brooch back options include a magnetic back or a pin back - PLEASE CHOOSE WHICH OPTION YOU PREFER.  If no option is chosen then a pin back option will be posted as default.
