Blue Swallow Brooch

A swallow in mid-flight, glazed in deep cobalt enamel and edged in gold. It’s a small piece of art to wear every day.

Product description
The swallow always finds its way home. For centuries, sailors wore it as a promise to return. Travellers wore it for safe passage, and lovers gave it to say come back to me.

Our Blue Swallow is caught at full stretch, with wings swept back and its forked tail open. Its body is glazed in cobalt enamel with a soft marbled finish, so the colour shifts in the light. A fine gold-tone line traces every edge.

Pin it to a linen jacket, a wool coat lapel, a scarf or a tote. It’s made to be worn with everyday clothes and lived in, not kept in a box.

Part of the Everyday Art Collection: small, beautiful objects that bring art into the ordinary moments of the day.
