I am inspired by the natural world around me and love walking in the countryside near my home. As autumn progresses I love the crisp clear mornings with heavy dew on the grass and a bright blue sky. I am mesmerised by the fantastic autumnal colour palate which changes daily as the trees head towards hibernation, dropping their leaves and fruit . These silver clay acorns were made from  real acorns and consequently all marks are natural and derived from the original acorns. I made a mould of the acorns and then pushed the silver clay into the mould. Once dry, I fired the clay leaving these fine silver acorns, which I cleaned and polished into their current beauty. I added 24k gold leaf to the acorns using an ancient technique called ‘Keum Boo’ which adds depth to the acorns and provides some autumnal colouring. The sterling silver ear wires were handcrafted to complement the acorns size.

Your earring will arrive in an eco friendly cardboard gift box along with a polishing cloth and care instructions.
