Tortoiseshell Butterfly Mini Pin Brooch

A small, detailed brooch inspired by the familiar tortoiseshell butterfly, captured in a simple, expressive form.

Each piece begins as a hand-drawn illustration, shaped into a clean design and laser cut from FSC-certified wood. The surface is then carefully hand painted, bringing out the warm tones and markings of the butterfly while keeping the piece light and easy to wear.

The use of wood gives a natural texture and softness, while the scale makes it an understated addition to clothing, bags or everyday layers. It’s a quiet nod to the small moments of nature, the kind often noticed in passing.

Made in small batches and finished by hand, each brooch carries slight variations that reflect its making.

Packaged in a simple window box, it fits easily through a letterbox, making it a considered and easy gift.
