Tomfoolery Dalia Gemstone Brooch Sapphire Fashion

Designed and fabricated by Joanna Manousis, the ‘True Facets’ series integrates both real and printed illustrations of gemstones suspended in sheet glass. Each glass piece is meticulously hand-polished and elevated in fine silver basket settings, providing a sense of dimensionality and grandeur to the overall piece, along with a push and pull between the real and the illusionary.

Joanna Manousis is a British visual artist creating monumental and intimate-scale sculpture and jewellery in glass, mirror, and mixed media. Her work often imitates other materials and recognisable objects, creating shifts in perception and an altered sense of reality for the viewer / wearer.
