*Introducing Recreation Jewellery*
As well as my usual stock of unusual vintage and antique jewellery and collectables, TheMouseyPad are also now the home of ReCreation-Designs jewellery.
What is ReCreation-Designs?
As an antique dealer I am often horrified about the number of wonderfully designed and crafted items that are consigned to scrap because of damage, missing parts or simply the market demand for bullion. My mission is to save some of these exquisite artisan pieces and using them as inspiration, re-create a completely new and unique piece by combining old with new and elements made fro,m scrap. Because the elements are sold as scrap, they are usually a mix of jewellery, silver objects, discarded silver wire and sheet and simply pieces of tiny scrap which I can melt down / recycle to use in all sorts of ways.
Every piece is truly a one-off and is therefore completely unique to the wearer. I have four themed collections in production which are
Hot Planet - themed around nature, environment, biodiversity
Junk Yard - incorporating elements reminiscent of a junk yard
Totally Wired - made in the min from silver wire
Maths Class - geometric themed pieces with a difference.
I hope you enjoy my small effort to combine recycling, sustainability and distinct designs.

5 out of 5 starsThe salt and pepper cellars immediately caught my eye. They are wonderful. In addition, the seller has put even more work into restoring them. Now I can call two wonderful objects my own. I am so grateful.

Frequently asked questions
Who are ReCreation-Designs?
ReCreation Designs are my own jewellery range which I make from scrap silver and other broken unwanted jewellery. TheMouseyPad will sell items from ReCreation Designsand the usual selection of vintage and antique jewellery and collectables that I’ve always sold.
Wholesale availability
Every item I sell is pretty unique so I only have one of each I’m afraid although I do work in themed collections which have similar design features. Some of these are easier to “replicate” than others but no two are ever the same.
Is every part of your jewellery vintage or used.
Whilst the main elements are formed from scrap, I order to ensure that the jewellery is hygienic and/or robust, I add new chains and critical load-bearing findings where necessary though this is minimal. I am getting more skilled at making my own findings as I gain experience!
What about sizing?
I do specialise in large statement pieces though some elements are idea; for smaller, finer pieces. I try to make any fittings like ring sizes, bracelets and bangles as standard as possible, but this can be sometimes dictated by the base piece. Please ask if you are unsure of the size.
Who is that modelling your jewellery
I’m proud to say I made everything in those pictures as the beautiful model is my daughter Lauren!
