Awe Walk Brooch – One of a Kind

The Awe Walk Brooch is a handmade sterling silver brooch designed to hold what you notice when you slow down. Formed from three vertical sterling silver tubes, each one functions as a small vase. You can tuck in leaves, flowers, berries, or found fragments from a walk taken with attention. The brooch becomes part jewellery, part ritual. A small, wearable pause button.

I make this handmade silver brooch in my Glasgow, Scotland studio. Each tube is embellished with hand-engraved silver leaves, adding detail and texture without overwhelming the form. The structure feels solid and intentional, while the open tubes invite change. What you place inside shifts from day to day, shaped by season, weather, and mood. The piece moves easily between wearable art and personal practice.

The Awe Walk Brooch is about grounding yourself in the world through small acts of noticing. It’s a companion for walks taken slowly, with curiosity rather than destination in mind. Jewellery can act as a physical cue, something you return to when your nervous system needs settling. This contemporary sterling silver brooch holds that idea gently. An invitation to look closer, step outside, and carry a piece of the world back with you. Did you know that Awe Walks release feel-good hormones like dopamine and oxytocin, and reduce stress hormones like cortisol in the system?
