This exquisite hand crafted brooch is made from 100% real brass with a polished finish. The casting of the design gives this piece has an old world feel. You will find Celtic symbolism throughout, most notably the Triskeles at the end. Triskeles like many other symbols mean more than one thing and it different to whom you are speaking with at that time. It could mean mind, body, and soul; spiritual, physical, and celestial; past, present, future and so much more. The pin comes sharp for fastening a cloak, shawl, and furs.
