Love Statement Brooch Hand Painted Ceramic Jewelry
"Love" says it all, and very sweetly too, in a large colorful boho brooch painted to resemble primitive stitch work.
A multicolor trio of unique charms - 2 hearts and a glove - dangle from a long porcelain bar with the statement in black against a light blue background. On each side red "patchwork" hearts and black and white checkerboards embrace the message, and around the edges a yellow border encloses it all.
Below the bar, the first heart has a red outline around a blue and white check pattern; for the center heart a lacy "doily" surrounds a yellow center with a red and green tulip gracing the middle; the hand shaped charm has a dainty pink heart on a pastel blue background.
The front finish is semi-glossy, while all the back are unglazed white.
Everything about this piece says: "Handmade" and "One of a Kind!"
