Ferns symbolise eternal youth. To the indigenous Maori of Aotearoa (New Zealand), ferns represent new life and new beginnings. To the Japanese, ferns symbolise family and hope for future generations. According to Victorians, the fern symbolises humility and sincerity.
 
Encased in a delicate silver plated teardrop is a leaf of dried fern. Fastened via a jump ring to sterling silver huggie hoops.
 
The huggie hoop is a perfect style for less dexterous hands, with it’s easy open and close function.
 
I make each piece of jewellery myself, from hand picking the flowers, to the rigorous drying process, to immortalising them in resin. As they are handmade there will be differences between each flower and piece, also the nature of flowers I am unable to replicate a previous item exactly. There may also be a couple of air bubbles in some pieces, this is due to some flowers releasing air during the curing process.
 
I post all orders first class with Royal Mail, in cardboard boxes, filled with biodegradable padding, wrapped in tissue paper. Everything is recyclable and kind on the environment.
