Bronze with natural patina. Stainless steel clasp. One of a kind. Electroformed and handcrafted by Angela Lago in her Studio-Atelier in Madrid.
This brooch is inspired by the San Telmo, a Spanish ship lost near Antarctica in 1819. Its story is not one of conquest, but of disappearance. What remains is silence, oxidation, erosion. The trace left by time and salt.
The patina is not decorative — it’s a slow reaction. A dialogue between metal, air, and time. An object shaped not only by hands, but by what it has endured.
