RIPPLES IN SILVER

The ridges and folds of a cockle shell, washed up on the shore, are perfectly recreated in this pair of silver stud earrings. Working from a studio on the shore of a sea loch in the Scottish Highlands, sisters Ana and Saffron craft jewellery inspired by the ever-changing wild and unspoilt land outside their door. The silver used in these earrings is recycled and refined into 999 fine silver, and the shells they are modelled on were gathered from Plockton beach on the west coast.
