Magnetic Silver-Coloured Tree and Spiral Brooch in Steel, 5 cm

A tree and spiral brooch with symbolic relief

The Magnetic Silver-Coloured Tree and Spiral Brooch in Steel has an asymmetrical arrangement within an exact 5 cm diameter. We measure every piece directly, making it possible to mark out the stated size on the intended lapel, cardigan or scarf. Its tree motif also places it among our tree of life brooches, while leaving its interpretation open.

The structure is made from silver-coloured steel. A large white and silver-coloured spiral sits at the upper left; a black disc bearing a silver-coloured tree with white leaves lies at the lower right. The composition also includes a ridged grey fan at the lower left, a small round mauve element, an irregular grey shape at the upper right and a small clear faceted decoration beside the black disc. These details are described as seen, without assuming mother-of-pearl, enamel, a cabochon or a rhinestone.

Choosing a position for its exact 5 cm diameter

Black and white provide distinct reference points, while grey, silver colour and mauve soften the palette. Against black or navy, the pale spiral and steel outline stand out. On light grey, ecru or a cool pastel, the black tree disc becomes the strongest contrast. A relatively plain area keeps the asymmetrical arrangement easy to read.

Checking the intended position before fastening

• mark out a 5 cm circle on the intended area;
• leave some space around the spiral and tree;
• choose a quieter section of a patterned material;
• check access to the back when using a compatible bag.

Powerful magnets tested for this 5 cm spiral brooch

The decorative part sits on the visible side and the separate round perforated magnetic plate included with the brooch goes on the other side of the support. We tested the powerful magnets on several materials, including wool and 5 mm faux leather. A seam, fold, particular weave or moving area can affect stability. Always check the hold carefully in the exact chosen position before wearing the brooch.

Connecting and separating both parts with control

Hold the steel body and bring the rear plate towards it gradually. Smooth the support and move the garment to assess stability. To remove the brooch, keep both parts secure and slide the plate sideways instead of pulling on the spiral or raised decorations.

• repeat the test whenever the material or position changes;
• avoid placing a thick seam between both parts where possible;
• keep magnets away from cards, watches and sensitive devices.

Features of the silver-coloured tree and spiral brooch

A tree and spiral brooch with personal meaning

The tree may suggest roots, nature, continuity or a family relationship; the spiral may recall movement or simply appeal as a graphic form. These are possible personal associations, not a fixed message or a power attributed to the product. The brooch can equally be chosen for its black, white, grey, mauve and silver-coloured palette.

A carefully packaged gift to personalise

Every brooch is carefully packaged so it can be offered easily when it arrives. A short note linked to a memory, person or occasion gives the design an individual meaning for the recipient. Other varied motifs can be explored among our brooches for women.

Caring for the silver-coloured steel and raised forms

After wearing it, wipe the surface gently with a clean, soft and dry cloth. Avoid water, perfume, creams, detergents and abrasive products. Store the brooch flat in its packaging and apart from heavy accessories to reduce pressure and rubbing against the raised shapes.
