The Product: Japanese floral art black and white brooch
Delicately hand-painted, this porcelain, black and white brooch showcases Japanese floral art in miniature. These beautiful brooches would make a thoughtful gift for fans of elegant, artisan-made craft, handmade jewellery or Japanese design.
The Lowdown
The brooch originates from the studio of talented, Japanese ceramicist Miyu Kurihara. The Frankfurt-born artist studied art and textile design in both Japan and London. She employs traditional brush techniques to decorate each porcelain brooch by hand. Watch this fascinating short clip to see the artist at work in her ceramics studio. Miyu draws upon her heritage, taking her cues from traditional blue and white Asian ceramics, as well as Japanese kimono designs. The results, however, possess a decidedly modern sensibility.
Styling Ideas
This brooch is a quirky and delightful addition to any outfit. I can imagine it pinned to a linen lapel, used to fasten a plain silk scarf at the neck, decorating a collar or even pinned to a beret or hatband.
The Detail
These petite Japanese floral art brooches measure approx. 3.5cm in height x 3cm wide. They are glazed, come with a simple pin fastening on the back and are each signed by the artist. See here for alternative brooch patterns. Queries or questions? Please don’t hesitate to contact us via email here.
