Made of fine silver, 999.
The silver – certified recycled – is textured to imitate the grain of the sand from which glass is made. The glass beads are handmade from recycled glass by artisans in Ghana and I melt them again gently to snugĀ around the silver.
This pair is perfect to accompany your favourite black dress.

Silver naturally tarnishes with exposure to air.
Wash with warm water, not hot. Dilute dish soap in a sink full of warm water before adding the silver items to avoid dark spots from concentrated dish detergent.
Lemon juice works very well to clean your jewellery. Rinse clean with warm water.
This piece is part of the glass collection. In this collection I play with glass beads traditionally handmade by artisans in Ghana.
I am fascinated by this material ā Glass ā that is made only from sand and heat. It can change shape again and again, indefinitely, with a new purpose each time. So I work the fine silver ā which is also recycled ā to resemble the grainy texture of sand. I also explore traditional jewellery design from nomadic cultures in northern Africa.
