A beautiful tulip handcut from sterling silver and embossed with a wonderfully tactile flower texture.
The tulip has a simple design cut into it, through which your clothes will add a pop of contrasting colour.The design embossed into the silver is inspired by the brightly-petalled flowers in my garden, a perfect reminder of summer days.
The brooch is finished with a strong fitting complete with stainless steel pin as shown to hold it securely in place.
Each design in the Watercolour Collection originates from my watercolour and pen-and-ink sketches, and the process of their creation is a mix of traditional and modern techniques. Sketches are put into repeat patterns on the computer and then laser engraved into card, creating a deep texture. Silver sheet is then passed with the engraved card through a rolling mill, a traditional item in any jeweller's studio, and the deep pattern embosses the silver. As each pendant uses a slightly different part of the pattern no two pieces of jewellery are ever the same.
Earrings, cuff bracelets and smaller pendants with the same flower design are also available.
All Joanne Tinley Jewellery is beautifully presented in my signature dove grey gift boxes, complete with a care note, perfect for gifting. A gift card with a short handwritten message can be included if you wish.
