North African Fibula

This highly-sophisticated fibula, or cloak pin, is very well-made. The triangular body is adorned with small indentations, three-dimensional flower heads and the remanants of an artistic green and red mural. These chiselled patterns continue along the pin itself, with depictions of flowers and a plant clearly visible on the silver surface. The adjustable ring around it helps fasten the fibula to your underlying garment.

As a result, this fibula a very versatile piece of jewellery that echoes the beauty of classic fashion styles, making it a bold statement piece for those who wear it.
