How to wear an elephant brooch
An elephant brooch suits warm, relaxed looks: a camel coat, a knit or a canvas bag. Pin it to a lapel or a collar for a friendly, characterful accent.
Magnetic or pin fastening
An elephant brooch fastens with a classic pin or a magnet, depending on the design. A magnetic brooch holds with no hole and no mark, ideal on fine or delicate fabrics.
To keep a brooch looking its best, wipe it with a soft, dry cloth, avoid water and perfume, and store it flat. For magnetic models, keep the magnet away from bank cards and electronic devices.
