So I did a thing on impulse….

[Ionysis]

I was insta-scrolling as you do, and I came across a reel which I just fell in love with.

I am back in the U.K. for a weekend to see my mother and the seller was U.K. based (so no shipping or import duty).

And so I simply leapt at this pretty little thing. Do I need it? No. But I WILL wear it because I totally adore brooches and wear them every day. So I should t feel guilty right?

@Ionysis , do you mind sharing the vendor's name? I'm starting to keep an unofficial list with trustworthy vendors. Tia!

Gorgeous! So glad it landed in your hands! And that you will get a lot of wear! It is a piece of art!

Love the detail on the wings, had to zoom in to really appreciate them. I can only imagine how amazing this piece is up close.

Sure - Ishy Antiques on Insta. Very pleasant to deal with.

I wore it yesterday to go shopping, pinned on a cardigan with my jeans, and refused to feel overdressed

 

[Ally T]

Oh, I love it! Such presence & elegance!
