Parrot Brooch / Perico
The parrot brooch is a variation the parrot design that I originally created for the 2018 V&A Museum Exhibiton: "Frida Kahlo: Making Herself Up".
This parrot is based on Frida Kahlo’s pets, and her use of birds in her paintings. My approach to design this brooch was inspired by the beauty and rich exotic colours of the birds from Mexico and South America.
Materials: Made of shimmering glitter silver acrylic and printed rainbow graphic feathers with a base metal and stainless steel clasp components.
It comes with a gift box and a card with a graphic illustration of the parrot.
Dimensions: 7 cm
Please note this brooch has been printed on to an acrylic sheet, therefore there may be slight variations of colour on parts of the printed surface. This piece has been imagined, designed and brought to life with at lot of attention to detail and love. It is made in small numbers and hand assembled making it very unique and special.
