Lotus Collection




I made these lotus flowers by layering petals upon petals and soldering them together. The more layers I built the more I got excited by the challenge of making sure the piece held together when I reheated it.

I love to wear botanical themed jewellery as it echos the past era of the art nouveau movement (one of my favourite art movements. Flowers, branches, twigs and insects are so feminine and elegant and classic when stylised and made well.
