Beth Sanderson — 'Grating (Mabel)' Brooch with Cubic Zirconia

Grating is a series of wearable objects which reimagine a common household form to find whimsy in the ordinary. Enamelled brooch with sterling silver backing with two blue stones. The form is cut and shaped by hand and the enamel on steel creates a completely unique surface.
