Do You Ebay?


Well, I now have an Ebay page...and have no clue what I'm doing. So, keeping my fingers crossed that I don't mess something up!
 
I have several brooches in my jewelry box that I purchased some years ago (when I wore suits for work). Now, they are just collecting dust...and these were not "normal" brooches. 
 
I got them from Russia, and each is a painting done under magnification...the detailing is stunning! 
 
I don't know how even with a magnification lamp someone can get this kind of detail...but they did. 
 
Each is obviously hand made by an artist with wire work skill to create the brooch after painting the scene.  
 
Three are done on Mother of Pearl and one is enamel. So, if you'd like to invest in a piece of art that you can wear...check these out. The skill of the painters is astonishing! And, wish me luck with my new "adventure"... :)

Those are lovely. I don't wear them or I would be tempted.

wishing you good fortune with your ebay site. Are you going to list your book there also? The brooches are beautiful. I'm sure they won't last long! Candy
