A little shamrock with just enough sparkle, this brooch is traced almost entirely in iridescent diamanté, with three looping leaves, a slender stem and a larger stone at the centre. The stones shift through smoky gold, soft pink, green and flashes of blue as the light moves across them, which gives the piece far more colour than you might expect at first glance.
The open wirework construction keeps the brooch light physically and visually despite the generous number of stones. It is a lovely size for a hat, jacket lapel, cardigan, scarf or coat collar.
