Handmade Brooch — Persian Tile | Sage & Teal Ceramic | SHB Studio

A small rectangle of stoneware, hand-pressed with a pattern drawn from old Persian tilework — soft sage where the glaze sits high, deep teal where it pools into the carved detail. Hand-shaped and kiln-fired in my UK studio, glazed individually so no two pieces are alike.

A quiet, meaningful piece for a coat, a scarf, or the brim of a hat. Arrives gift-ready on an SHB Studio card.

A meaningful gift for:

• Mother's Day & Grandmother's Day — a thoughtful, wearable keepsake that doesn't end up in a drawer
• Birthdays — especially milestone ones (40, 50, 60, 70+)
• Retirement gifts — to mark a chapter beautifully
• Teacher, mentor, or colleague thank-you — quietly elegant, never over the top
• Wedding gifts — works as a "something handmade" for the bride or her mother
• Bridesmaid & maid-of-honour gifts — keepsakes they'll actually keep
• Graduation — a grown-up first piece of jewellery
• Christmas & stocking gifts — beautifully boxed, ready to give
• Nowruz (Persian New Year) — green, the colour of new beginnings
• Sympathy & remembrance — a small, gentle gift that says I'm thinking of you
• For yourself — for the days you want to feel quietly put together

Specifications:

Because each piece is made by hand, slight variations in glaze pattern, drip placement, and edge finish are part of its character. No two are ever identical.
