WHY YOU'LL LOVE THIS
- Brass is a durable, long-lasting material that can be repeatedly recycled without losing its properties, making it a sustainable choice for timeless decorations.
- The highly polished brass has a warm golden finish that beautifully catches and reflects the light.
- The set includes three hand-cut brass hanging decorations: a 10 x 10cm solid star, a 10 x 10cm cut-out star and a smaller 6.5 x 6.5cm solid star.
- Generous 9cm hanging loops of fine natural allo or jute twine, depending on availability, make the stars easy to hang from different hooks, handles and branches.
- Complete the look with our matching SITARA brass star tree topper. Both are entirely plastic-free, including packaging.
ABOUT THE COLOURWAY

HANDMADE IN NEPAL
Our cut brass jewellery and decorations are handmade in Kathmandu, Nepal, by artisans working within a collective certified by the World Fair Trade Organization. AURA QUE has worked with the group since 2019. The collective supports its artisans through initiatives including allowances for family healthcare and children’s education, as well as a savings scheme. Each piece is cut, assembled and polished by hand in the specialist jewellery workshop.
MATERIAL, CRAFT & NATURAL VARIATION
Local brass is hand-cut, filed and polished by metalwork artisans to create our jewellery and fittings. An alloy of copper and zinc, brass is valued for its strength, workability and ability to be repeatedly recycled without losing its properties. Traditionally associated with the 21st wedding anniversary, brass has a long history in decorative metalwork and jewellery making. Subtle variations in the surface and natural changes to the brass over time are part of the character of the material. All our earring hooks and studs are sourced in the UK and are free from nickel, lead and cadmium.
MORE ABOUT THE ARTISAN PROCESS
- Cutting the brass: Brass sheets are carefully cut into the individual shapes needed for each AURA QUE design. The artisans work precisely to create the form and proportions of each component.
- Smoothing & refining: The cut brass components are filed and refined by hand, smoothing the edges. Tiny variations in shape and surface are a natural part of the handmade process and give each piece its own character.
- Adding the details: The loops for our jewellery look integral, but these are actually created from brass wire which is seamlessly integrated on to the pendant. A sturdy wire is twisted into a cone shape to create the stand for our tree topper decoration.
- Assembling & polishing: The individual components are assembled to create the finished piece. The brass is then carefully polished, bringing out its warm golden colour and smooth finish.
