Handcrafted Fine Silver Wild Flower Daisy Drop Earrings
£50.00
This hand crafted cute little pair of delicate circular drop fine silver earrings have been made using silver metal clay and daisy flowers picked from a field near my home in the South Downs of Hampshire. The flowers were gently pressed into the clay to create an imprint of the original flowers. Once fired the piece becomes solid fine silver, which was hand finished and polished. The imprint design was subtly aged to highlight the petal patterns. The back of the earring is hammered to give some added Daisy twinkle. The little daisy discs are hung from sterling silver hooks.
This beautiful Daisy was picked from the field in the park at the end of my road, which was absolutely covered in these beautiful Daisies. Did you know Daisies go to sleep at night, and wake up again in the morning when the light returns (which is where its name comes from)? The end result is a pair of solid yet lightweight silver earrings, one a kind, hugged by nature, hand crafted with love and ready to wear with pretty much anything.
Dimensions: Fine silver discs measure 1.3cm in diameter x 1mm depth; Total drop from top of hook approx. 3.2cm; Hook – Sterling silver.
All of the imprint jewellery that I make, including these earrings, are similar yet different, just as no two plants, leaves or imprints are ever the same. Each ‘pair’ is therefore not an exact match. All my botanical designs, including these earrings, are made in very small batches, often to order, so there is minimal impact on the plant or other wild users of the plant! Which also means, of course, that the finished piece is truly one of a kind – just like each individual leaf in nature!
The earrings/necklace will arrive wrapped in pale green tissue paper fastened with linen thread, and in a kraft pillow-box. A little handwritten note explaining a bit about the piece is also included. Additional gift wrap options are available, see below.
POSTAGE INCLUDED: The package will be shipped in 1-3 days and sent by Royal Mail Tracked 24.

These designs begin life as precious metal silver clay, which is rolled out, imprinted and cut – sometimes I use a cutter to create more uniform circles, other times I go free-form. (These were cut using a small lid from an essential oil spray!). Once dried, a hole is carefully drilled and each piece is sanded smooth in the right places, by hand. The piece is then ready for firing for which I use a blow torch. The process of firing burns away the organic compounds in the clay, leaving behind a solid piece of fine silver (fine silver is 99.9% pure silver).

COMMISSIONS: You may also like to know that I love taking special requests and commissions – perhaps to celebrate a special birthday or event, or maybe just to turn a favourite ‘something’ you have collected into a piece of jewellery you can wear. So if you’d like to talk about creating something truly unique and bespoke for you or someone in your life please do get in touch, I’d love to help. Previous commissions have included turning a customer’s own sea-glass into a necklace, handcrafting a Bramble flower for a 21st birthday, recreating a dangly Catkin for a favourite sister or some coffee bean earrings for a Barista. It’s also worth knowing that commissions don’t necessarily cost more than items in the shop – it depends what you have in mind – so it’s always worth a no-strings chat.

Returns and Refunds
All of my pieces are handmade with a lot of love and I take great pride in everything I make, and in seeing a smile on your face! I am a strong believer in hand-made meaning quality and also that because each piece is individually made by hand there sometimes may be irregularities on the surface reflecting the organic nature of the materials I work with , which creates truly one of a kind pieces.
I also know that occasionally things might go awry, and if you find that you have a problem with your item please contact me straight away so we can discuss how best to resolve the situation.
