Copper Penannular Brooch

This is a 2″ Copper Penannular Brooch or Kilt Pin. It is an ancient design dating back to the middle ages and was used to fasten shawls, tartans and cloaks. My pin is made of heavy gauge copper wire that has been hand forged and textured. A simple copper coil is added to each side to add interest.  This is the first of several I have planned to make over the next week or two, just in time for the Las Vegas Highland Games coming up mid-April.
