Part of the Dappledark collection. For those who feel at home in the undergrowth.
Elderwood Oath is carved from wood and set with a teal sapphire, this brooch carries a quiet, grounded kind of magic. The stone catches the light like still water beneath leaves, a small hidden pool held close.
The reverse is formed from recycled sterling silver, rolled with a real leaf so its imprint is pressed directly into the surface. Every vein and line held in metal, a trace of something once living, now kept.
There’s a mystical feeling to it, I think. As though it belongs to the edges of old forests, to moss and bark and the slow passing of seasons.
This is a one of a kind piece, as unique as the grain in the wood and the veins in the leaf.
Handmade from start to finish in my studio in South Shropshire, England - please allow up to 15 days for delivery via Royal Mail, or collection from The Artists Gallery, Ludlow.
