This celebratory brooch is handmade from 40 individually cast silicone hollow forms to represent each year of Dazzle. As an alternative to the precious Ruby 40th anniversary stone, the silicone graduates from a deep ruby colour to a pale rosey pink. Each silicone cup moves freely on an intricate domed framework, made up of a grid of small silver circles, making the back just as interesting as the front. The combination of the silicone and grid like structure makes this brooch lightweight and suitable to wear on most fabrics.

Cleaning Instructions
The silicone is very flexible but should be handled gently. Take care not to pull silicone parts away from the silver. Do not spray any cosmetic products directly on to the jewellery.To clean the silicone: Wet your hands and gently rub the silicone between your fingers – a little washing up liquid can also be used. Dry with a hair dryer. Once completely dry, dab a little un-perfumed talcum powder on the silicone and rub off the excess. This cleaning process can be repeated as often as required.
