BIANCA ROSE WOOD
It’s easy to feel good about wearing jewellery made from recycled wood. Smaller pieces of this amazing material are so often thrown away, all of the beautiful woods in my workshop were rescued from waste of one kind or another, many from my past life as a furniture maker. Cutting and shaping each piece by hand brings a special quality to the shape and feel of the jewellery, and allows me to produce very little waste in the process.
This amazing Walnut Veneer on a Mahogany back came to me as two panels from the doors of a 1930's wardrobe. Otherwise broken beyond repair, these doors deserved another life and now they have many! It is a really wonderful rich chocolatey colour, and has some beautiful grain patterns.
The greens grey and tiny flash of yellow of this design were inspired by a tiny seaside cove in the South West of England. The kind you have to walk down crumbly steep steps to get to. A small secluded beach with rock pools, driftwood and sandcastles. Each pendant is painted freehand so although they follow the same design, every one is truly unique.
The pendant is made to a high standard, and will happily deal with a drop of rain, but please don't wear it in the shower - wood and water are not the best of friends! Also do your best to keep it away from perfumes and cosmetics.
