This custom brooch has been handmade using vintage book pages taken from The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, by Arthur Conan Doyle. The illustration print, originally by Sidney Paget, was drawn for The Boscombe Valley Mystery - an excerpt of which is used on the reverse of the brooch. The laser-cut details on the front of the brooch reads "...Then he followed a pathway through the wood until he came to the high road, where all traces were lost...". A bespoke handmade pin compliments the piece, made using sterling silver with an oxidised finish.
