After a long time of obsessing and putting it off and looking all over for a lamb like this, I finally produced my first enamel pin!
The material is hard enamel (also known as cloisonne, the highest quality kind) with silver details and the lamb just an inch and a quarter tall at its highest point.
You can check this lamb out on my new etsy. Oinkshop! We have Eve to thank for the name.
Thanks so much for looking! I am grateful to all the various sympathetic and tender people and readers who have supported this and all the other animal-based DIY projects I have pursued over the years.
Soon I might post about the process of making this, but the main thing is that I drew a bunch of India ink drawings and scanned my favorite--a completely analogue process.
The backing cards are handstamped with a handcarved block of easy carve linoleum. My favorite.
