Old House Aesthetics Iron Grille Brooch - Yellow-Orange

Countless childhood afternoons were spent playing around our old home, as time hurried by and the sunlight shifted, casting ever-changing shadows from the windows. The same rusted grilles, observed in the morning, cast shadows like a small chessboard, but by afternoon, they transformed into the large squares of a hopscotch grid. Years later, the busyness of working far from home filled our days, and the light and shadow, once graced by the blooming of iron window grilles, gradually faded into the depths of memory. Yet, each time we returned to our hometown, from the entrance of the alley, we'd begin to count the window grille patterns of neighboring houses— four-leaf clovers, intertwined hearts, ninja stars... childhood nicknames for them resurfaced one by one. It turned out that within these seemingly intricate lines lay the purest of emotions. After visiting various places and selecting the most common iron window grille patterns found in Taiwanese traditional houses, these patterns are pieced together to recreate the imagery of cherished memories, capturing the fleeting light and shadow in their most beautiful moments. The brooch represents not just iron window grilles, but also symbols of a bygone era, and through these portable accessories, it brings the warmth of memories into every corner.
