Brooch (the so-called "Hanney brooch") of Anglo-Saxon (Kentish) manufacture, decorated with garnets set in bosses of a white material, perhaps shell. Made in the 7th century, the brooch was found in the grave of a woman between 20 and 25 years of age and would have been worn on her left shoulder. From Oxfordshire, England, UK; now in the British Museum. Photo credit: Ian R. Cartwright/The Portable Antiquities Scheme/The Trustees of the British Museum.

Lukola fanfic excerpt: Luke and Nicola have feelings for one another but have not confessed them to each other. They are filming the one-take wedding dance scene. It goes as well as you can imagine.
(Excerpt taken from my fanfiction 'Curtain Fall')
28th November 2022 – Surrey (UK)
The Gallery was an ornately decorated room, with adornments of brightly-coloured flowers, sumptuous tapestries and antique furniture. Large windows framed by draperies of velvet and silk lined the space, allowing natural light to filter through.
Nicola considered how this majestic room would very shortly be filled with people and noise. There would be the crew and then there would be the cast mates and extras, all in their various regalia. This would be the last time this season that they would all be together in a scene. Although some of the cast would still be returning to film additional scenes, today would mark her last filming day with everyone – including Luke. If that was not enough to create an enormous feeling of occasion; it was also the day they would be filming Penelope and Colin’s wedding dance. If she let herself linger on these thoughts for too long, she found her throat becoming dry and her heart start to race. She could not let her mind overcome the muscle memory she was planning to rely on – not today.
She tried to orient herself to something that would distract her. She gazed at the mirror on the wall in front of her and at the scene it showed was happening behind her: two crew members fiddled with lighting as Tom, their director, presided over them with his usual commanding yet father-like presence. There was something about the familiarity of the scene that felt comforting.
Then her eyes shifted to her own reflection. Whilst it was true that she had been in front of mirrors since five o’clock that morning, she had not truly looked at herself. She had been going through the sleep-deprived motions: taking sharp intakes of breath as the wardrobe team fitted her into her corsetry, yawning her way through the make-up teams’ application of thick, glamourous make-up on her face, neck, cleavage and even arms. Sure, she had been slightly more alert when she was allowed to cautiously sip a strong black coffee with her usual seven sugars as her hair was expertly styled but even then, she had not really woken up. Now, in the bright light of day and with the adrenaline coursing through her; she finally realised why everyone had been getting emotional at the sight of her. She understood what all the fuss was about.
She stood resplendent in a blush satin gown that gracefully fell to the floor around her. Her silhouette was perfectly accentuated by an empire waist; the neckline was tastefully rounded and short, slightly puffed sleeves added a little of Penelope’s individual flair to the look. Her hair was a more striking shade of auburn than usual and styled with jeweled hairpins into a soft, intricate up-do with curls gently framing her face. Her makeup was a lot softer and more natural in appearance than it felt on her face; rosy cheeks, a hint of pink on her lips and subtle but dark eye make-up enhanced her large eyes.
Even she had to admit that she looked beautiful.
“Woah.”
Luke’s voice came from off to the side.
He walked in through the grand entrance: tall, dark and handsome. He wore the traditional formalwear of the Regency era; a black, finely tailored frock coat that highlighted his athletic build with an ivory waistcoat underneath. An expertly tied navy-coloured cravat and silver brooch finished off his look.
She felt her breath catch.
He was immaculate.
He looked at her with awe written across his face. It took her a minute to realise he was likely as mesmerised by her as she was by him.
“Hello to you too.” She managed to respond, forcing a smile that should be coming naturally.
It was not that she was not happy to see him. It was that she was too happy to see him. All she wanted to do was leap up, wrap her arms around him, run her hands through his beautifully combed hair and kiss him. The urge was so strong that it took her aback. She would need to scale her emotions back around him; she would need to be the best actress she had ever been to achieve this. The one small mercy that she had was that once the cameras rolled, she could ease up on herself. She could let herself look at him with the mixture of fascination and obsession she wanted to because it would not be her looking. It would be Penelope.
His eyes scanned over her, she thought that there was an element in them that conveyed restlessness and some sense of dissatisfaction.
Was she reading too much into things?
She had been plagued with thoughts of what if.
What if he felt what she felt?
No, she could not read too much into his emotions. She tried to remind herself that this day was bringing an emotional side out in everyone. It would be strange if he was his usual laidback self. In fact, it made more sense that he seemed somewhat disturbed. They were all disturbed. The scenes they were filming were high stakes, carrying with them the weight of the most important love story from that season.
“You look…” He started but seemed to interrupt himself. “I mean – are you – are we OK?”
“Yes, of course.” She was quick and somewhat defensive in her reply. “I’ve just been insanely busy as things are winding down.”
This was a lie.
Over the last few weeks, Luke had been contacting her nearly every day with an assortment of memes, random musings and direct requests to meet up for private rehearsal of their final scenes. She had responded evasively, if at all. She had felt awful doing it. Yet, the alternative was to spend time with him alone – something she did not trust herself with. In truth, these were not intimacy scenes that she or he would be highly anxious about and need private or even additional rehearsals for. She knew that he was asking so that they could just spend time together, but this no longer felt appropriate for her. He wanted a friend to banter with, she wanted to do things to him she could not say without blushing. They were in different places.
“I really wanted to celebrate your last day in our traditional style – with some kind of feast in one of our trailers.” He smiled, a sparkle of excitement in his eyes. “You pick.”
She reminded herself of her sister’s sage advice: keep your distance and keep your knickers on.
“I’m really sorry, I’m heading off set and straight to a Barbie shoot.” This was at least not a lie.
“Oh, wow, I forgot that was coming up. That’s amazing, Nic.” He continued smiling, a hopeful tone to his voice. “I’ll be wrapped and back in the city on Saturday – maybe we feast then?”
She felt her heart sink.
Why was he so sweet?
Why did this feel like killing a puppy?
“I’m sorry Luke…” She apologized again. “We’re doing Christmas abroad this year and leaving in under two weeks. I just haven’t got the time. We can catch up when I’m back in the New Year?”
He seemed unconvinced by her answer, concern spreading across his face.
Before their conversation could continue, Tom was standing over them with Jack, their lead choreographer, right behind him.
“You guys look amazing.” Tom complimented them, scratching at his head.
“So, are we ready?” Jack asked, rubbing his hands together with excitement.
Nicola surveyed the expansive yet mostly empty room around them. She spotted their cinematographer and a handful of the crew by the cameras, watchful and waiting.
“Is everyone else late?” She found herself asking out loud.
Jack and Tom exchanged knowing looks. Luke stared at them and then at her, matching her confusion.
“No, no one is late – you guys are just a little early.” Tom explained, a mischievous twinkle in his eyes. “I wanted time for us to get Penelope and Colin doing their first dance here, just the two of them stealing a moment alone together.” Tom gestured to the room around them, a wide grin on his face.
“And Jack’s here a little bit early too just to offer some choreographic wisdom but really, I was hoping you guys could just let go a little, be a little spontaneous in movement…” Tom continued.
“I would say, do the steps but without overthinking the manners and formality.” Jack added.
Nicola digested this. The one area of safety she had been clinging onto was to switch her mind and emotions off, and to surrender into the role of Penelope with the carefully planned out steps and words that she was scripted to do. Now, she was having to contend with having to act from a place of improvisation. Improvisation that had previously led her to completely lose control of herself with him. The mental gymnastics of it all made her brain hurt.
“Sounds good to me.” Luke responded in a nonchalant tone that seemed inauthentic to her.
“Do you guys want to go through a quick sequence…?” Jack queried, but Tom was quick to wave off his suggestion.
“No, let’s just go right now with whatever you guys have in the bag – I want to get as many spontaneous takes as possible.”
“Yay, spontaneity.” Nicola weakly enthused, eliciting a nervous chuckle from Luke.
“Right, we’ll go from your mark here.” Jack guided them to their spot in front of the cameras before shuffling back to stand behind one of the monitors.
Nicola felt her heartrate increase again.
They stood face-to-face, the gap between them was just a few inches. She felt as if her whole body was vibrating. There was something about being in a wedding dress, in front of him in a tux, in this grand and historic room that caused a swell of emotion to overcome her.
Jesus Christ, get it together. She tried to tell herself.
“Let loose a little bit. There’s no audience. It’s just Colin and Penelope.” Tom directed, standing behind the camera. “It’s the day they’ve overcome obstacle after obstacle to get to. This is where they finally get to just be themselves, no pomp and circumstance.”
Luke nodded in acknowledgement, and Nicola followed, bobbing her head at Tom.
“Alright – action!”
Immediately, her eyes were locked onto his. That was all it took for her to decide to just surrender. No more defenses. She knew she was gazing at him adoringly, wistfully, hungrily… her chest heaved with the deep breaths she took as she fell into the familiar configuration of steps that they had repeated hundreds of times.
They moved in perfect synchronicity like they had a so many times before in their rehearsals but this time, it felt different. This time, she was Penelope without her guardrails. She was Penelope alone with the man she had ached for for most of her life. She was Nicola. She was Nicola not having to restrain herself from not only touching him but holding onto him with a grip so tight that it was telling on her.
The world and people around them seemed to disappear as they danced around one another; drawing closer, touching, then breaking apart again, gently pulling further back before once again, being lured towards one another. Pulling and pushing like two gravitational forces that could not quite work out if they attracted or repelled.
She could not take her eyes away from his. There was a look in them that was intense and longing.
This is our goodbye. She thought to herself, her heart silently breaking.
The surge of emotion was so great, she felt tears sting angrily at her eyes. There were so many reasons why she could not cry right now. She saw that his own eyes were glassy with the threat of tears too. Instinctively, they pushed against each other, holding one another tightly, and she felt his hand gently caress the side of her face, making electricity shoot through her body as their lips drew closer and closer.
It was all she could do to hold her position there, millimeters from kissing him.
There was a pause that felt like it went on forever before Tom’s voice sliced through the silence, yelling cut.
Immediately, Nicola moved her face away from Luke’s hand, letting go of him, and turned to face the crew.
The looks on their faces were on par with the looks she had received when she had first stepped out in full costume that morning: pure astonishment.
“That… that was the fucking take, pardon my French.” Tom laughed, bewildered. “Jesus, I don’t know what you guys channelled there but that was it.”
“Just… sublime.” Jack echoed, shaking his head in disbelief. “I mean, don’t get me wrong, you’d have been flayed alive for some of those steps at a real Regency era ball but for what this is meant to convey… just, wow.”
Nicola found herself chuckling, grateful for the hint of comic relief. She was almost too scared to look to her side, to catch Luke’s eyes. The whole thing made her ache. She was still working hard to keep the tears back.
“Get over here, you need to see yourselves because I don’t think you realise what you’ve just pulled off.” Tom enthused, ushering them over so that they were stood behind one of the monitors.
Their scene started to play out in front of them. Nicola saw a couple moving together in beautiful harmony, clearly infatuated with one another.
“I only wanted you guys to get into character before the wedding dance with everyone, but I think we need to get Jess’s eyeballs on this, see if we can put it in somewhere.” Tom lauded, watching with them. “Really, well done, you guys.”
“Wow, that’s amazing.” Luke spoke, his eyes on the screen, but his voice sounded strange.
“A one-take wonder!” Tom laughed. “Might be worth saving a clip of this in case this just ends up on the cutting room floor.”
Nicola thought about whether she would want a copy of something so real and raw, or whether this would be better off relegated to obscurity.
What would hurt her less?
She didn’t know.

Peacock big brooch vintage look silver plated turquoise suit coat broach pin j51 Multicolour Peacock Brooch Vintage Look Silver Plated Suit Coat Broach Pin
Design: JJJ51
Brand new and in sealed Packs
Properties: 3 dimension, with stunning Diamante stones
Color: Antique Silver Plated and Multi Colour Stones as shown in photos
Description: Stunning, glitter, elegant, beautiful. It is the perfect accessory for party, gift, weddings, proms, pageants, causal wear or other special occasions.
Size is 10.6cm x 4.9cm x 1cm
*****RRP of these brooches is £49.99 each.
USE OF BROOCHES:
* Brooches, once a mainstay of every woman’s wardrobe, now come and go for many in the same manner as other jewellery trends. It is, however, easy to make a positive case for this sophisticated piece of jewellery. It is, after all, more versatile than any other jewellery item. * Brooches can be used the standard way: as an accessory to fashion. But that is by no means their only use. They can also be used on clothing accessories as well as in the hair. * Purchase one or more brooches, if they are not readily on hand.
* Use the brooch on clothing. Attach a brooch to the high neckline of a blouse, dress or jacket. Use one or more brooches (in a cluster) on the lapel of a suit jacket or place one or more on the shoulder of a jacket or dress. Pin several small brooches over the buttons of a blouse or dress to liven up the clothing or show off a collection. Try using smaller pins as a substitute for cuff links on a blouse by just pinning the brooch over the cuff's button.
* Hook a brooch through a “magna pin.” This converts the brooch to a magnetic closure, thereby doing away with the need to stick the pin part of the brooch into fabrics that could otherwise be damaged by the process. This makes it simple to use the brooch on heavy fabrics like boiled wool, suede or leather.
* Utilise the brooch to help securely attach an accessory to clothing such as a scarf, a shawl or a shrug.
* Attach a brooch to a hat to feminize it or give it a touch of pizzazz.
* Pin one or more brooches onto a handbag or clutch to convert a daytime look to evening chic. * Use a magna pin for heavier fabrics, suedes and leathers. * Convert a brooch to a pendant by attaching it directly to a thick necklace chain, omega or collar. Hook a pin over a string of beads or double them up, pulling them together around the neck. Close with a brooch to create a unique choker. * Use a pin converter to turn a brooch into a standard necklace pendant. * Turn a brooch into a piece of hair jewellery. Attach a pin to a headband. Using wire or thread, attach a brooch to a hair comb or barrette. Run the pin of a brooch through the elastic of a ponytail holder for a top knot accent piece. Attach a brooch directly to the hair (or a wig). * Good use on Indian Saree, suits, dresses and dupatta etc. * Used to tie and decorate wedding/parties chair clothes on the back of chairs. * Excellent to decorate Christmas presents and gifts. * It can either be used on the top of invitation cards/letters for wedding parties, birthday parties, evening parties or casual invitations. This will certainly give a posh look to your invitations. * It can be used for the decoration of Wedding, Birthday and Anniversary Cakes.
If you know any other use of brooches, please let us know and we will share these ideas with our privileged customers. Thank you in advance.
Please do not forget to add us to your favourite sellers list and keep looking at our listings, we are going to launch a wide range of brooches and a big variety of SMART Fashions Jewellery for parties and evening wear very soon.

Roman bust of Alexander the Great, excavated from the ruins of Herculaneum.
-Blenheim Palace Oxfordshire, UK.
Bronze portrait of Alexander the Great. Greek or Roman, Late Hellenistic to Hadrianic ca. 150 B.c. - A.D. 138.
This posthumous portrait, with long "leonine" hair recalling Alexander's divine association with the hero Herakles, was probably from a cult statue.
-Metropolitan Museum of Art, NYC.
A Roman marble portrait of Alexander the Great. Circa 1st century AD.
The Macedonian ruler depicted lifesized, with a muscular neck, the laryngeal prominence bulging, his head turned to his right, his forehead creased, the deep-set eyes with modeled lids, his small mouth with parted lips, his thick, leonine hair swept up at the forehead in characteristic anastole.
-Antiquities, Sotheby's, London.
Marble head of a statue of Alexander the Great from the Court of the Passage of the Theoroi, Thasos, Greece. 2nd century AD.
Thasos was one of the first cities to worship Alexander as a god. An annual Alexandreia festival was held there on his birthday. This head features one of the most obvious examples of the "anastole" hairstyle characteristic of several portraits of Alexander.
-Thasos Archaeological Museum.
A Roman marble bust of Alexander Helios. Circa 1st Century AD.
His face framed by thick wavy hair, with seven recesses over the top of the head for insertion of bronze rays, wearing a chlamys fastened with a circular brooch at the shoulders, with three ears of wheat at the base of the bust, mounted.
-Formerly in a Swiss private collection, 1950s.
Bust of Alexander the great – Pierre II Legros known as Le Jeune.
This marble bust depicts Alexander the Great wearing a helmet reminiscent of his status of chief of the Macedonian armies. Wrapped in a lion’s skin, an attribute of Heracles, he also measures up to the twelve labors of this half mortal and half-deity hero, in light of his multiple military triumphs.
A monumental Roman marble head portrait of Alexander the Great.
Late Antonine period to early Severan period, circa late 2nd - early 3rd century AD.
-Marbury Hall, Cheshire, UK.
Head of Alexander the Great as Helios, Roman 2nd century AD.
Turned violently upward and to its own left, this head of Alexander the Great as Helios was carved to be let into a statue of nearly colossal proportions. The divine ruler was probably represented in the heroic nude with a cloak or aegis about the shoulders, concealing the join of the neck and shoulders. A ruler's rolled fillet encircles the head behind the leonine locks which enframe the face.
-Museum Of Fine Arts Boston.
A detail of the relief on one of the long side of the Alexander sarcophagus. We see Alexander at the Battle of Issus (333 BC).
The King is shown wearing a lion-shaped helmet, which is perhaps a reference to Heracles, the hero who defeated the Nemean Lion, or otherwise serves to underscore his ferocity in battle.
-Istanbul Archaeological Museum.
Alexander the Great wearing a lion skin, a frequent attribute on monetary portraits alluding to Herakles, his mythical ancestor; inscribed letters on the face are later additions.
Pentelic marble, ca. 300 BC. Found in Kerameikon, Athens.
-National Archaeological Museum of Athens.

Please do let us know about any special requests about wrapping these brooches while ordering. Use of Brooches: Brooches, once a mainstay of every woman’s wardrobe, now come and go for many in the same manner as other jewelry trends. It is, however, easy to make a positive case for this sophisticated piece of jewelry. It is, after all, more versatile than any other jewelry item. Brooches can be used the standard way: as an accessory to fashion. But that is by no means their only use. They can also be used on clothing accessories as well as in the hair. Purchase one or more brooches, if they are not readily on hand. Use the brooch on clothing. Attach a brooch to the high neckline of a blouse, dress or jacket. Use one or more brooches (in a cluster) on the lapel of a suit jacket or place one or more on the shoulder of a jacket or dress. Pin several small brooches over the buttons of a blouse or dress to liven up the clothing or show off a collection. Try using smaller pins as a substitute for cuff links on a blouse by just pinning the brooch over the cuff's button. Hook a brooch through a “magna pin.” This converts the brooch to a magnetic closure, thereby doing away with the need to stick the pin part of the brooch into fabrics that could otherwise be damaged by the process. This makes it simple to use the brooch on heavy fabrics like boiled wool, suede or leather. Utilize the brooch to help securely attach an accessory to clothing such as a scarf, a shawl or a shrug. Attach a brooch to a hat to feminize it or give it a touch of pizzazz. Pin one or more brooches onto a handbag or clutch to convert a daytime look to evening chic. Use a magna pin for heavier fabrics, suedes and leathers. Convert a brooch to a pendant by attaching it directly to a thick necklace chain, omega or collar. Hook a pin over a string of beads or double them up, pulling them together around the neck. Close with a brooch to create a unique choker. Use a pin converter to turn a brooch into a standard necklace pendant. Turn a brooch into a piece of hair jewelry. Attach a pin to a headband. Using wire or thread, attach a brooch to a hair comb or barrette. Run the pin of a brooch through the elastic of a ponytail holder for a top knot accent piece. Attach a brooch directly to the hair (or a wig). Good use on Indian Sarees, suits, dresses and dupattas etc. Used to tie and decorate wedding/parties chair clothes on the back of chairs. Excellent to decorate Christmas presents and gifts. It can either be used on the top of invitation cards/letters for wedding parties, birthday perties, evening parties or casual invitations. This will certainily give a posh look to your invitations. It can be used for the decoration of Wedding, Birthday and Anniversary Cakes.
