Autumn Alder » Enamel and Silver Necklace

The Alder tree is associated with secrecy as well as fortitude. Alders are usually found in the parts of forest that people are less inclined to enter – the places where bandits and thieves reside (according to folklore). But this is just because Alders are prone to growing in very inhospitable places, where most people are not inclined to wander.

So if you know anyone with an adventurous and persevering spirit, this necklace would highlight their personality.

The surface effect on this piece was created with a technique called enamelling. Enamel is a powdered glass which fuses to metal when fired at temperatures around 815°C.

When heated, the powder flows and hardens, becoming a smooth and vitreous surface. Enamel is very durable. However, if handled roughly or exposed to chemical cleaners it may crack or become dull.

Therefore, please clean this piece with only a polishing cloth and handle with care.
Each one of my jewellery pieces is handmade. Due to the wonderful nature of hand-crafted items they are not all the exact same, in contrast to machine-fabricated jewellery.

This means that sometimes the picture seen on my website will not look precisely the same as the piece you receive in the mail. This is especially true of enamelled pieces. The enamelling process is fascinating and unpredictable (the colouring will always turn out different from piece to piece).

Most of my customers treasure this unique feature and enjoy the idea of owning a special item carefully produced by a craftsperson.

Please keep this in mind when purchasing an item from me.
