The Breath Brooch was drawn as a single continuous line, inspired by the simple act of breathing in and out. The form is open and expansive, and the line flows seamlessly from the body of the brooch into the closing pin so the whole piece reads as one unbroken gesture. It sits on the lapel or collar with a lightness that belies its presence.
In 22ct matt gold, the Breath is for the woman who has always loved the idea of a brooch but never found one that felt current. The matt gold finish is warm without being precious, and the open hand-drawn form has none of the fussiness that puts people off brooches in the first place. It works on a blazer lapel, a fine knit, or a silk blouse where the form can sit and catch the light without competing with anything else.
You pin it on and feel like the outfit has been given a focal point. Something that makes the whole look feel intentional rather than assembled.
This is for the woman who wants a quiet way to be seen. Pin it to a jacket, knit, shirt, or scarf, and the whole outfit feels more personal without becoming loud.
The pin and the clasp follow the line of the drawing. It is designed to sit close to the back of the brooch. The construction of the brooch is very strong and durable, yet light on the fabric.
Why collectors keep coming back
- Lightweight and comfortable on fabric: These brooches are designed to sit lightly, without tugging, dragging or pulling the garment out of shape.
- Easy to layer: Because they are so light, you can wear one brooch quietly or layer several together to build your own small composition.
- Handcrafted in Melbourne: Made by hand in the inSync studio, one piece at a time.
- Care and repairs: If your piece needs a repair, send me your order details and a clear photo. Repairs for workmanship or material problems are complimentary. A small fee may apply for damage from wear, accidents or lost components. I’ll let you know before doing any work.
- Selected by museum and design stores: inSync design has been selected by museum and design stores internationally.
Wear with X2 Boulder Stud Earrings - Gold/ Raw, Cobble Necklace - 22ct Matt Gold Plate, and Reed Ring - Raw Stainless Steel for a collected look that feels considered from shoulder to hand.
Wear your brooch on a jacket, coat, knit, scarf or dress. It can sit high near the shoulder, low on a lapel, or at the centre of a simple neckline.
For delicate fabrics, test placement first or wear it through a slightly stronger layer.
A brooch is a beautiful way to flirt with boldness because you can move it, restyle it and make it your own.
Will it pull on fabric?
These brooches are designed to sit lightly, even on finer fabrics. For silk or very delicate pieces, test placement first.
Will it feel too bold?
Pin it to a jacket, knit or scarf you already love. One brooch can make familiar clothes feel more expressive without feeling overdone.
Can I wear more than one?
Yes. Because they are so light, you can layer several brooches together and build your own small composition.
Where should I place it?
Try the shoulder of a jacket, the edge of a collar, a knit, a scarf or the centre of a simple neckline.
How do the pin and clasp fit?
The pin and clasp follow the line of the drawing and sit close to the back of the brooch. The construction is strong and durable, yet light on the fabric.

A brooch can turn the clothes you already love into something more personal. Pin it where you want a small spark of creative self-expression.
How to wear it
Place it high on a lapel, across a knit, or slightly off-centre on a jacket. One considered placement is usually stronger than adding more.

Collectors often tell us their inSync pieces start conversations. It is the kind of recognition that comes from people who notice shape, colour and detail.
