Silverbay Jewellery ®
Rather than only show you finished pieces, I thought it would be a good idea to show some step by step projects as well. I make everything in my home workshop and my designs are mostly in my head so you won't see many drawings (mainly because I can't actually draw!) Click on the arrows to see all the pictures.
These earrings are one of my early designs and they match the triple heart pendant in my silver collection. The hearts were hand cut with a fret saw from sheet silver, soldered together and then the wire posts soldered to the back.
During our long spell of gorgeous weather this summer I was pottering in the garden when I saw a dandelion seed floating in the breeze. This tiny piece of nature floated into my head, onto my sketch pad, then my workbench and finally transformed into this little beauty. Made from silver wire balled at the ends and soldered together. It's one of my favourites!

This little cat was commissioned by a friend for her daughter, Imogen's 18th birthday. She wanted something modern and timeless and this is the result. Cut from silver sheet with a little wire tail added as a finishing touch. Imogen loved it!
