Hunting Owl Brooch Silver

Description

The Hunting Owl Brooch Silver in sterling silver is a captivating work of art that fuses timeless craftsmanship with the wild spirit of the Outer Hebrides.

Handcrafted in South Uist by skilled artisans, this brooch reflects both the rugged beauty of the landscape and the refined artistic traditions of the region.

Designed by John M Hart, its form captures a moment of natural grace—a hunting owl in mid-flight, immortalised in a delicately detailed silver rendition.

Every curve and contour of the Hunting Owl Brooch Silver is a testament to the artisan’s dedication, revealing a meticulous attention to detail.

The design evokes the silent, purposeful flight of a hunting owl—a creature celebrated for its wisdom and penetrating insight.

This symbolism is enhanced by the local presence of short-eared owls, which can often be seen gliding over the peatlands near the workshop.

Such natural inspirations infuse the piece with a profound sense of place and purpose, connecting wearers to the rich heritage of the Hebrides.

The sterling silver itself is transformed into an intricate narrative of flight and finesse.

Each feather, each delicate arch, is rendered with a precision that not only illustrates the physical beauty of the owl but also alludes to its deeper symbolic meanings.

This brooch is not merely an accessory—it is an expression of tradition and a celebration of nature’s quiet strength, rendered in metal with an artist’s eye for detail.

Reliable quality is assured by its hallmark from the Edinburgh Assay Office, a mark that binds the piece to Scotland’s prestigious legacy in precious metal artistry.

With dimensions of approximately 47mm in width and 25mm in height, the Hunting Owl Brooch Silver is both striking and wonderfully balanced, a size that makes it ideal as a statement piece for those who appreciate art that carries both history and uniqueness.

To elevate its appeal further, the brooch is presented in a beautifully crafted wooden presentation box.

This careful packaging underscores the artisanal value and thoughtful design behind each piece, making it not only a personal treasure but also a distinguished gift for someone special.

Wearing this brooch allows you to carry a fragment of the wild, poetic spirit of the Hebrides with you—a reminder of nature’s enduring beauty and the timeless pursuit of wisdom in every shared glance at a soaring owl.

The piece invites you to embrace both its visual allure and the stories woven into its design—a fusion of artistry, heritage, and nature that continues to inspire and captivate.
