The Remnant Brooch is a one-of-a-kind piece inspired by ancient textile fragments found preserved in museum collections. Created by stitching three different thicknesses of thread to form its distinctive tapered shape, the original textile form is cast in silver and riveted to a silver brooch back. The surface is patinated and filed back to create a softly faded pattern, scatter set with 52 black, grey and white diamonds that shimmer like tiny sequins. Finished with a stainless steel pin, the brooch brings together the traces of textile history and contemporary jewellery design.
Each design begins life as cotton thread, stitched by Ebba in her studio in Scotland. The thread is moulded and cast in wax before being transformed into solid metal through the ancient lost wax casting technique, translating textile threads into future heirlooms.
