a handbag and an attitude...

 

 

this fun little pin is fused sterling with 24kt gold kumbu on the handbag. kumbu is a proccess wherein a thin layer of 24kt gold is fused to the surface of sterling or fine silver. it was made from a cut-up section of a bracelet i'd made and wasn't happy with. when the pin was finished, i couldn't help but see a squared off little woman swinging her handbag as if to say "...you don't want a piece of me..."
