Open Book Brooch (Metamorphoses)
This playful brooch is inspired by one my favourite ancient texts, Ovid’s Metamorphoses. The shape and design is drawn from the open pages of a book, with the opening lines of the Metamorphoses in Latin on the left-hand side, and my translation into English on the right-hand side.
The perfect way to display your fondness for Ovid!
