Wives and Daughters Silhouette Pin
$23.99
That Last Meeting
Molly and Roger, captured in silhouette at the moment Gaskell never quite got to finish. Wives and Daughters is one of literature’s great unfinished novels — a warm, wise, deeply human story of growing up, of society and its expectations, of love that arrives quietly and means everything. And that ending. The one we all had to imagine for ourselves.
You wear it because Wives and Daughters is the novel you press into people’s hands and say, just trust me. This is a way to carry it with you.
Designed and hand-assembled by Jess of loadofolbobbins — a textile artist and illustrator based in Portsmouth, UK, who draws her inspiration from nature and the classic tales of literature she loves. Each pin is laser-cut from her original embroidered illustrations, made from responsibly sourced walnut-veneered MDF and finished with a gold-foil backing card.
