About MeThis brooch was given to Anne Donald by Bill Gibb in around 1978 following her order of his collection for the 'Windmill' boutique. Enamelled bee brooches were produced in a variety of colours to match the colour themes of each year’s collection.More About Me
Beautiful and delicate brooch, vibrant colours which stand out against the black of the head and body. Reminds me of Manchester and their symbol for the city.
