This absolutely beautiful ring was designed and created whilst in the green fields at Glastonbury 2010. A regular customer wanted a gorgeous ring to celebrate the summer. She kindly donated a fabulous pearl necklace which had been neglected due to a broken catch. This is an aside as she didn't request that the necklace form part of the ring.
She was delighted. Especially when she immediately noticed i included one of the pearls as the central focus of the design. The petal sets have been carefully recycled from three sterling silver English coins circa 1895! I used a lovely small silver threepence and florin for the larger flower with the pearl and a silver shilling for the other flower. The connecting underside of the ring is formed from an old sterling silver dessert fork prong! Wrought into a fine silver band the ring has been hammer textured to give sparkling silver facets.
Fortunately i have a lovely long line of these pearls now and i will certainly be on the look out for other neglected necklaces, yay, another pastime! I look forward to creating more of these beautiful rings so please feel free to order one! Each and every ring is handcrafted, recycled and completely unique.
