A simple curving oak leaf handcut from sterling silver and embossed with a tactile texture of smaller oak leaves, a reminder of our wonderful forests!
Each design in the Watercolour Collection originates from my watercolour and pen-and-ink sketches, and the process of their creation is a mix of traditional and modern techniques. Sketches are put into repeat patterns on the computer and then laser engraved into card, creating a deep texture. Silver sheet is then passed with the engraved card through a rolling mill, a traditional item in any jeweller's studio, and the deep pattern embosses the silver. As each pendant uses a slightly different part of the pattern no two pieces of jewellery are ever the same.
A brooch fitting with a strong steel pin is securely soldered to the back of the oak leaf.
Pendants, cuff bracelets and earrings with the same oak leaf design are also available.
All Joanne Tinley Jewellery is beautifully presented in my signature dove grey gift boxes, complete with a care note, perfect for gifting. A gift card with a short handwritten message can be included if you wish.
