Hand-beaded black and gold glass and bronze brooch store

Hand-beaded brooch with hand-formed bronze backing and pin stem mechanism. This is a one-of-a-kind “free form” embroidery: I store cut and pierced the bronze sheet backing with pin stem mechanism after the beaded portion was complete, then drilled holes to stitch it all together with nylon-coated metal cord, resulting in an incredibly durable and intricate floral statement.
