Shell Collection

.             
Have you found a shell on the beach and thought that would make a awesome pendant, ring or bracelet?

I got you! This doesn't just stop at shells, I can pretty much sand cast any small hard object and turn it into a solid sterling silver/gold pendant that will last a life time! This could be items such as coffee beans, coral, seeds, lego etc

All the shell jewellery I currently offer on my website are made using shells collected locally and a technique called sand casting. This is where an object such as a shell is pressed into the sand to create a void, molten metal is then heated up and poured in creating an exact replica of the object.
There is the option for you to provide your own metal such as scrap, broke or jewellery you don't wear anymore. If you are providing old jewellery please make sure it is sterling silver or gold.
