The Origin Brooch – Four-Petal Geometric Flower in Sterling Silver

The Origin Brooch

Drawn from geometry and shadow play, this four-petal flower brooch represents the very beginning of HerbertandWilks. The design grew from overlapping circles — a simple act of drawing arcs that created a bloom where the lines crossed.

Inspired by Pattern and Culture

This motif connects to both the geometric flower designs found in the Victoria & Albert Museum and the rhythmic patterns of tapa cloth. It carries a sense of cultural resonance and timeless symmetry, sitting comfortably between tradition and contemporary design.

From Wax to Silver

Each petal is hand-cut in wax and textured to leave delicate, tactile lines. Negative space is as important as the form itself — light and shadow carving out the flower’s character before it’s cast in sterling silver.

A Logo Brought to Life

The Origin Brooch is more than an accessory. It is the HerbertandWilks logo flower made wearable — a symbol of beginnings, of the play between geometry and craft, and of the textures that define the brand’s jewellery. You can explore more of our Botanical Jewellery to see how flowers, leaves, and vines continue to inspire the studio, or read About HerbertandWilks to discover the story behind the logo flower itself.
