Story:

Celebrate Women’s Suffrage with these beautiful Reversible Earrings
These hand crafted earrings were created for The Houses of Parliament as part of a collection of jewellery to accompany the launch of ‘New Dawn’.
‘New Dawn’ is a light sculpture created by Mary Branson to celebrate women’s suffrage and was installed in Westminster in 2016.
Sally was commissioned to make a collection of jewellery and was inspired by the original imagery that inspired the artist Mary Branson – the parliamentary scrolls.
Each piece in the collection is made from anodised aluminium decorated with a resist print of an interpretation of the scrolls and then dyed. The hand made nature of the jewellery makes each piece unique.
