The Tortoiseshell Mini Pin Brooch is a charming and beautifully crafted accessory by Lily Faith. Made from FSC-certified MDF, this brooch is laser-cut and hand-painted using a blend of gouache and Little Greene Paint Company emulsion to create a vibrant and finely detailed finish.

Packaged in bespoke window boxes, it makes a thoughtful letterbox gift that’s sure to delight the recipient. Each brooch starts as a hand-drawn pen-and-ink illustration, inspired by Lily’s favorite creatures or those she spots during her walks in the Devon countryside. The design is brought to life with laser cutting and engraving, followed by intricate hand-painting to highlight every detail.

A sturdy brooch back is securely attached using hot glue, so it’s ready to add a touch of whimsy to jackets, aprons, dungarees, or dresses. As the brooch is painted with water-based paints, it is best suited for dry or sunny days to preserve its vibrant colours and delicate finish.
