Handmade Selkie Brooch: Scottish Folklore Ceramic Pin

Discover the magic of Scottish folklore with this unique handmade Selkie brooch. Inspired by the enchanting legend of the Selkie, a mythical sea creature living as a seal in the ocean but transforming into a human on land when shedding its seal skin. According to the legend, if the Selkie loses its skin, it can never return to the sea, but once found, it immediately leaves the land to answer the call of the ocean. This captivating tale, especially popular on the Orkney and Shetland islands, inspired me to create this original Selkie design. This brooch adds a mystical and elegant touch to any outfit, coat, bag, scarf, or sweater. Made from ceramic modeling clay, it is carefully hand-painted with intricate details and sealed with two coats of varnish. To capture the allure of the Selkie's skin, glitter has been added to both the paint and varnish, making the brooch shimmer beautifully in sunlight. The back features a classic brooch clasp for easy wear. This Selkie brooch is a perfect gift for folklore enthusiasts, ocean lovers, or anyone who appreciates unique, handcrafted accessories.
