A very unusual pair of brooches, they are one of a kinds and are designed to sit on your shoulder. The angel to encourage you to do good in one ear and a devil encouraging mischief in the other.

I created the brooches by crocheting coloured copper wire.

The angel has a halo which is decorated with gold plated beads, her gold and white dress also has gold plated beads on the trim. She has a tiny fresh water pearl necklace, tiny silver slippers and she holds a wand I made with stainless steel wire and a mother of pearl star. Her wings are decorated at the back with beautiful shell chips.

The devil has little horns and tiny gold plated bead buttons. His little black boots also have gold plated beads on them and the end of his tail and his knees are red coral stone chips. I gave the devil a gold coloured fork and the back of his wings are gold stone chips.

I gave the angel and the devil little faces, I sewed little red lips and blue eyes for the angel and red lips and black and red eyes for the devil. This is such a fun brooch set that is very unique and while the brooches look great when worn together they will be happy to be worn individually too depending on your mood.

The angel brooch has two ordinary gold plated brooch pins and one gold plated tie tac pin on the bottom and the devil brooch has one ordinary gold plated brooch pin on the bottom and one gold plated tie tac brooch pin on his leg.

The angel brooch measures 5.5cm (2.2 in) tall from halo to slippers, 5cm (2 in) wide from the front slippers to the back wings and 4cm (1.6 in) thick from one wing edge to the other. The devil brooch measures 6.5cm (2.6 in) tall from his boots to the top of his wings, about 5cm (2 in) wide from the front of his boots to the back of the wings and 4cm (1.6 in) thick from one wing edge to the other.
