Silver & Gold..

Each one of these precious metal combinations is totally 'one-off' and unique. What they have in common is the basic recycled raw materials sterling silver and 9ct gold. The silver is sourced from old English silver coins and the gold is reclaimed unfashionable jewellery that people no longer wear. These two metals contrast beautifully when combined and fused. In the case of this pendant i have melted and beaten the silver coin into submission! I have then carved a star and heart into a steel bar and stamped the surface of the silver. The impression left by the stamping is oxidised to reveal the detail. A simple gold star and heart have then been cut from the gold and fused into position on the pendant. The pendant is a gorgeous rough looking silver and gold piece, with a honest background. 100% recycled and handcrafted in Cambridge.
