Upside down flag jewelry brooch IN DIRE DISTRESS International symbol of mayday

"Flying the American flag upside down is an officially recognized signal of distress. § 8(a)The flag should never be displayed with the union down, except as a signal of dire distress in instances of extreme danger to life or property."

This is such a time.

Starting with sheet steel, I affix and finish a paper image on to the surface with image transfer gels. The image is now UV protected and water resistant.
The lapel pin in finished with a butterfly, locking pin back closure.

Questions are welcomed. Thanks for stopping by!
