Brooch, by Roger Morris

This acrylic brooch inlaid with resin and wrapped in a piece of gold-plated silver was made by the Scottish artist Roger Morris in 1987.

The rectangular brooch with rounded ends was made of black acrylic inlaid with white resin, with a wrap-around piece of gold-plated silver. It is part of a series of ten brooches constructed in a similar mode but with varying design details.

During the 1980s the Scottish Development Agency purchased a number of hand-crafted items for its Scottish Crafts Collection. The aim of the collection was to inform the public of craft production in Scotland through touring exhibitions and education programmes. When the Scottish Craft Council was wound up, the collection was transferred to the National Museums of Scotland.
