Double the point of view.
Add a touch of sophistication to your outfit with the Trug Brooch, a perfect mix of elegance and edge. This whimsical 'hand-drawn' brooch is a standout piece that will elevate any look effortlessly.
Crafted from feather-light stainless steel, the Trug Brooch is designed as a continuous line that extends seamlessly from the body of the brooch to become the closing pin. This gives it a unique look that stands out from the rest.
Wear it on your favourite blazer, scarf, or even your hat to express quiet confidence. It's the perfect piece to add a touch of personality and edge to any outfit.
Don't hesitate to add the Trug Brooch to your collection today!
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 Wedge Earrings - 22ct Matt Gold Plate, Entwine Necklace - Raw Stainless Steel, and Reed Ring - 22ct Matt Gold Plate 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 retired colour or form has its own understated pull. This is wearable art for the collector who likes a piece with a little history.
How to wear it
Pin it to a lapel, wool coat, linen jacket or generous knit. It suits women who like one thoughtful detail rather than a busy look.
The compliment effect
Collectors often tell us the same thing: someone stops them and asks where they found their piece. It is an understated kind of recognition from people who notice design.
