From My English Garden

 

I love wildflowers, even the humble and much-maligned dandelion, whose sunny yellow flowers bring so much cheer in early spring, and vital nutrients for pollinators. This year, I was excited to find buttercups for the first time, hiding among the long grasses of our 'wild' lawn (we are passionate advocates of 'No Mow May — And Beyond'!).

 

Creating a mould of these delicate flowers is tricky; the buttercup has soft, almost silky petals which are hard to get an impression of... I was so pleased with how well this came out using Art Clay Silver, after much careful trial-and-error. Patina was applied to highlight the finer details, then polished to a lovely satin shine.

 

Presented on a 16" sterling silver belcher chain. Art Clay Silver is a moldable silve clay compound which, when fired, magically transforms into pure silver.

 

Coastal and Botanical are two new ranges within the Minimalist+ collection, inspired by my fascination with nature. 

 

 

About Seadragon Silver

I was born in the Year of the Dragon according to the Chinese zodiac, and I love creating simple, sleek jewellery. I use a lot of seaglass, most of which we find along the beautiful beaches of the North Norfolk coast here in England, as well as beautiful semi-precious gemstones, surfite, Fordite and dichroic glass. 

 

I'm proud of every piece I make, and I hope you enjoy wearing my jewellery as much as I love making it.
