We're cocooned in a deep veil of mist and fog here on the hill this morning. It makes me want to reach for the mug of hot chocolate and mince pies already. Here's a recent listing in my Etsy shop - from vintage mirror back buttons with elaborate filigree and enamelling dangle asymmetrical vintage Huntley & Palmers biscuit tin panels with delicate orange flowers and minty green leaves. A sweet gift for a 10th wedding anniversary - which is tin. . . . #mirrorbackbuttons #artefactjewellery #vintagetin #vintagetinearrings #vintagetinjewelry #vintagebuttons #grannychic #biscuittin #huntleyandpalmers #sustainablejewelry #weddinganniversary #10thanniversary #tinanniversary https://www.instagram.com/p/Ck8KpCiNGNS/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Is is better described as “weaponized jewellery” or “disarmed spearhead”? #finding at @velvet_castle A diamond and Neolithic arrowhead brooch by @houseofgarrard Sold at @roseberysauctioneers #oldnewjewellery #contemporaryjewellery #artofjewellery #beautyofjewellery #jewelleryasinspiration #artefactjewellery https://www.instagram.com/p/CF9oCrFDYdX/?igshid=14nnfxwj78js6

My last raw quartz spinning top shape crystals have been made into earrings and one necklace to follow. I wish I had more of these. I love that they’re a bit wonky, as is the Roman glass I used at the top, so it kinda evens out. Finally got to use the hand carved antique Chinese Hedaio nut beads with their amazing detail plus hand carved bone bead with stars on the sides. Finally, on the last dangle are beads I made using my recipe of Apoxie sculpt clay and cement with @anvilartifacts faux Raku paint tutorial (you can find on their Etsy shop). All on sterling silver wire and oxidised for a rustic outta-space look. . . . #assemblageearrings #primitivejewelry #rawquartz #quartzcrystal #romanglass #hedaiobeads #hedaio #antiquejewelry #assemblageart #artefacts #artefactjewellery (at Harrowby, Lincolnshire) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRQx-2zhqcl/?utm_medium=tumblr

Just finished a pair of earrings that has taken me in a slightly different direction creatively through the inclusion of Roman glass beads and Roman Greyware beads. It’s nice to work with my mind open to possibilities that are outside of my usual instincts and hope that the experience feeds into my work further down the line. . . . #romanglass #romanglassearrings #assemblageart #romangrey #greyware #artefacts #artefactjewellery #romanglassbeads #foundobjectart (at Harrowby, Lincolnshire) https://www.instagram.com/p/CMCl3EWhLIU/?igshid=xoalafms4mg0
