Story:

HONEY FUNGUS COLLECTION
The Honey Fungus jewellery collection, was created by casting directly from the rhizomorphs of Honey Fungus (Armillaria mellea). This fungus can have a devastating effect in the garden spreading underground attacking and killing the roots of trees and shrubs. However, the network of rhizomorphs are extremely beautiful with an incredible texture and the resulting jewellery is visually exciting, dynamic, beautiful, and truly individual.
This collection is inspired by honey fungus. The honey fungus is a saprophytic fungus. The jewellery is made by casting directly from the honey fungus and transforming it into stunning silver jewellery.

Artist

Nicky Barton Jewellery

Living and working on Dartmoor has had a positive and profound impact on my work and my aim became to reflect the tactile qualities of the surrounding flora and fauna, within my jewellery making. I began experimenting with transposing these surface qualities by reproducing the textures through casting in silver: reticulating and hammering the surface of the metal and embedding semi-precious stones to reflect the natural colours of my environment.
My most recent collection is inspired by the Honey Fungus (Armillaria mellea), I became excited and inspired to use the eye-catching beauty of this pathogenic fungus. This can have a very devastating effect in our UK gardens. However, the network of rhizomorphs that spread underground have an incredible texture and are extremely beautiful. I began to cast directly from these Honey Fungus rhizomorphs, resulting in my visually exciting, stunning and dynamic jewellery collection.
