Kim Buck, Chop a Heel and Clip a Toe, 2020, brooch in manipulated Michelsen marguerite brooch, gilded silver with enamel, 1 ¾ inches (44 mm), photo: Dorte Krogh. This piece utilizes the daisy brooch as a ready-made element. The original object has been modified to embody the phrase "Chop a heel and clip a toe," a saying derived from the fairy tale Cinderella, where the stepmother encourages her daughters to cut off part of their feet in order to fit Cinderella's glass slipper.
