RockLove Jewelry, which has already produced some beautiful licensed Outlander-related items for sale on the official Outlander store, just announced a brand new brooch!
The stag-head brooch is inspired by this passage from Outlander:
A bearskin cloak, to be exact, fastened at the neck with a silver-gilt brooch as large as the palm of my hand. It was made in the shape of two leaping stags, backs arched and heads meeting to form a circle. The locking pin was a short, tapered fan, the head of it shaped like the tail of a fleeing deer. – Chapter 36, Outlander.
Here’s the description:
Hand crafted in solid sterling silver, the brooch spans over one and a half inches in diameter. Two Celtic knotwork stags bound within their border, antlers and limbs intricately entwined. The white-tail stick pin encircles and slides along the narrower top of the brooch so that it remains secure while adding the brooch to your favorite garment. Oxidized and repolished to enhance the depth and traditional cutout detailing, the sterling Fraser Stag Brooch arrives in RockLove’s signature Outlander: The Series jewelry box.
Allison Hourcade, designer and owner of RockLove, said of the brooch’s size: “If it were really the ‘size of your palm’ like the text, the weight would strain and damage knitwear. Not to mention cost twice as much! My mum is an expert lace knitter and as I crafted the brooch, I was imagining the many hours that goes into creating shawls and cowls, and the weight they could comfortably bear.” The pin sells for $125, and is available from RockLove.
