Zestaw do haftu koralikowego – broszka „Rowerek”

“Small bike” is a bicycle brooch in bronze beads with a basket of pink roses.

What the picture shows

The bicycle is shown from the side, both wheels equal and clearly readable. The rims are worked in bronze and gold beads, and the spokes are laid in bugle beads that run out from the hub in even rays. The frame is thin and dark, with a few bicones at the joints; the handlebars and the saddle are marked with tiny beads. A basket stands on the front rack, and out of it rises a bunch of pink and crimson flowers with green leaves — the brightest part of the piece. Hemispheres of two kinds work as the wheel hubs. Inside the outline the canvas is stitched densely, then cut out.

The finished piece is 70×57 mm and the kit holds 24 bead colours, most of them used on the flowers. The level is average, and the spokes need the most care: they must lie evenly or the wheel loses its shape. The brooch takes the clasp from the kit. The stones and findings are already matched to the design, so nothing else needs to be bought.
