Tree of life brooch, jewellery.  Handcrafted and recycled from the bowl of an old, unwanted spoon found in a Charity shop.  Handmade and original, ethically created by hairy growler, Cambridge, UK

The tree of life...

This fantastic, original and intricate brooch has been delicately handcut with a traditional jewellers saw and drill. Each brooch is a total 'one-off', completely unique. Being handcrafted from an old antique soup spoon each one is absolutely original, recycled and ethically sound. The techniques used to create the brooch are time honoured and traditional (and can been seen in the Workshop section).

The concept is both modern and traditional. What is now termed recycling in the past may have been called resourcefulness. The simple thing seperating the two are motif. Resourcefulness originating from saving money and recycling a principle to try and save the planet from ourselves! Anyhoo, a lovely timeless brooch with good credentials and a great conversation piece.
