Carved Antler Dunedain Star

Post by caedmon »

So I'm nearing completion on a long slow project, a different take on the dunedain star brooch. This one is carved from a caribou antler crown, and the white parts of the star itself will be completed in silver leaf, to keep with the silver star, but execute in more primitive materials. I have to add a pin backing and garnets for the stud holes.

That's awesome! Very cool interpretation! What sort of pin do you plan on using?
