FAQs

An enamel and silver brooch is a decorative garment fastener crafted from silver and decorated with vitreous enamel, often depicting natural motifs such as insects and flora.

Traditional techniques include sterling silver fabrication, hand-applied vitreous enamel, and often plique-a-jour or cloisonne methods to create translucent coloured effects.

Authentic pieces typically feature period hallmarks, traditional pin stems and C-clasps or safety catches, alongside natural ageing and hand-worked metal details.

A vintage brooch can be pinned to lapels, scarves, or hats to add a focal point of colour and metallic texture to modern outfits.

Preserve enamel items by storing them away from direct sunlight, avoiding harsh chemical cleaners, and keeping them in soft-lined jewellery boxes to prevent scratching.
