Custom Brooch Display This display is a perfect example of something that falls into this category. It is completely custom from the very original idea of displaying brooches to begin with, to the design, the built-in funtionality of the piece, and the overal final look that you see when hanging. These brooches are loved by the collector, and she wanted them displayed and framed like "art" hanging on the wall. Until now these things were normally kept hidden inside of a jewelry box, completely forgotten about. Now they hang on the wall where they are seen daily, enjoyed very much, and look quite beautiful! To allow for easy removal, to be able to wear one on that special occasion, the display was designed to open. If framing in an enclosed box they would still look pretty but would not be accessible without removing the back like you would be required to do with a photo frame... not practical in the least. The entire piece was custom made from solid walnut with a narrow door having a profile cut against the inside edge aorund the glass. This provides a look of elegance, and also helps to make the face of the door or "frame" appear even more narrow and more delicate.   Like a matted print or original painting that would be framed, hung on the wall and enjoyed, these brooches are now a look of art... beautifully displayed in a custom one-of-a-kind piece made especially for you and your collection. Like the fishing lure displays, the back on this piece is black velvet over foam padding which allows for each brooch to be "pinned" in place. This is nice because it allows you to place each item exactly where you want it, and not on a specific pair of rests or shelf. The result also provides for the look of a "floating" brooch with nothing touching it. With just the items inside and the rich looking velvet background, your eye focuses entirely on the pieces displayed and nothing else. This particular display measures 6 5/8" wide x 16 5/8" tall to give you an idea of the overall size. It can be hung either vertically or horizontally, depending on the look you want and your room. The individual displays like this will vary in price depending on the size, wood, etc. We will be happy to help you come up with a design that will enhance your collection and not "take away" from it.
