A lovely lady purchased one of my paint palette brooches and commissioned a beetle bug for her son's girlfriend who is studying parisitology in America. This is what I came up with using a large glass pendant for the body and surrounding it with heamatite, red pearls and dyed coral. This time adding both a brooch pin and a bail at the back so the choice is there for either.
I hope it is well received, I have already received some lovely comments on it which is reassuring.
