Earrings








These are two earrings I made while I was experimenting with circular forms. I made them both for myself. The second pair has a black pearls hanging in them.

Brooches



The first brooch I made on commission for my lovely friend Rosalind. She had scoliosis and wanted it conveyed in jewellery somehow. After thinking up various designs including earrings I settled on making her a brooch. If you wish to contact me about a commission my email address is esmeevasilver@hotmail.co.uk. The second brooch I made for my grandmother and chose a navy blue stone as that is her favorite colour. 
I was delighted to find out my gorgeous friend Rosalind owner of the backbone brooch wore it to london fashion week this year and it got featured on AltamiraVanessa JacksonFashionistable and Stockholm Street Style among others.

Rings


I made these rings for some old family friends 20th wedding anniversary. I made them opposites. On one ring the larger strip of silver is matte and the thinner strip shiny, but on the other ring the larger strip is shiny and the thinner strip matte. I tried to make them the type of jewellery you could wear casually and also for more formal occasions.

Pendants



The top pendant I made out of squares and rectangles of silver soldered together. I then experimented with different finishes leaving some of the squares matte and some of them shiny. The second pendant I made from scrap pieces of silver fused together into circle. I gave the second pendant to my mother.
