The English Oak...
This wonderful brooch is handcrafted and recycled from old, discarded,
unwanted serving spoon found in local charity shops or house clearance
outlets. The spoons themselves are antiques. However, they are usually
single items which have little value to collectors as the original set
is lost over the years. Similarly the 'odd' pieces of cutlery are of
little interest to anyone else in the market for eating utensils.
Each spoon is reborn as a
beautiful tree brooch. Holes are drilled and sections are pierced away
with a small jewellers hand saw (see workshop page). The end result
is quite pleasing.
