The Portrait I Brooch

Translating one of Zaid Farouki’s original painted portraits into embroidery, The Portrait I Brooch captures the expressive character of the figure through bold colour, layered texture and intricate handwork. Set against a vivid red ground, the portrait is defined by its striking blue ghotrah and expressive details, giving the original painting a tactile new dimension. Reimagined stitch by stitch, the artwork moves beyond the canvas into a collectible piece designed to be worn. Finished with a genuine leather backing, each brooch is individually handcrafted in the atelier. Styling Notes Pin it to the lapel of a sharply tailored blazer, a structured coat or a crisp white shirt for an artful finishing touch. It also works beautifully against tonal evening separates, where the vivid embroidered portrait becomes the focal point.
