About MeAnna works in gold, oxidised silver and platinum creating very minimal and sophisticated pieces. She is influenced by architecture and the environment, often using geometrical shapes, such as squares and circles. This gold wire brooch comprises a grid of four x four squares all contained within a thicker frame with a total of nine, four loop wire flowers which are fixed to the intersections of the grid. The flowers move with the wearer.
More About Me
Heavily influenced by geometric shapes and architecture the simple design of flowers has a modern feel. The flowers move with the wearer just like flowers would move in the wind.
