Some of the most iconic jewellery that sticks in the memory has been created to reflect the twin nature of the natural and the artificial: The beautiful forms that nature creates slowly over years, decades and generations, and the man-made that is created in seconds and can last for centuries.
My Woodland range is designed to capture both, and freezes the subtle and magical forms of natural objects like twigs and rosewood roots in precious sterling silver forever. My Gemstone Ear Studs With a Silver Twig Surround are a perfect example, a beautiful natural gemstone clasped and grasped from all sides by the tendrils of a rosewood root and framed by the rustic grain of a natural twig surround that is nonetheless frozen in silver, enhancing the contrast between natural and artificial.
Even more special is a creation such as this one that has been made with your own specific tastes in mind. That’s why I'm happy to alter our studs to include a variety of stones including Garnet, Amethyst, Blue Topaz, White Cubic Zirconium and Citrine.
I can also create bespoke versions of any of our pieces using different stones or metals in their creation, and we’d love to discuss your thoughts.
