Recycled vintage fish knives
Old unwanted fish knives transformed using traditional hand tools and a passion for green principles and ethics.
Each hare is carefully outlined on the surface of the fish knife. This is slowly and meticulously followed with a traditional jewellers piercing saw. The final shape is filed and polished to perfection. An old fish knife recycled into a gorgeous, wearable brooch.
An integral and interesting part of the brooch is the antique fish knife from which it was cut. This simple ‘donor’ knife is also given a little ‘Hairy Growler’ treatment. It is transformed in to an wonderful Objects D’ Art which acts a lovely resting place for the brooch when not being worn. Both are presented in a lovely box.
Each one of these beautifully crafted boxing hare brooches is handmade, totally green, completely ethical, 100 % recycled and utterly unique. Choose a launching, leaping, gliding or landing hare and choose a finish from elegant polished finish to stars or triple spirals.
Handmade and recycled in Cambridge.
Size : Approx 46 mm * 36 mm

Simply beautiful.
So many beautiful pieces hard to choose one or two too review. This one makes me smile because of the delight it seems to give in it’s freedom of movement.
