Bespoke Ski Card Memento Earrings

These stunning memento earrings were made from old ski lodge cards from a customer’s recent holiday. The perfect way to create a lasting souvenir of a much loved trip.

The cards were cut into guitar plectrums and diddy circles – arranged so that the elements sit together and flow beautifully.

Embellished with stunning sapphire gemstones which complement the beautiful colour gradients on the cards. All the components move independently to creat a gorgeous effect.

Mondrian to the Abstract

SULA Gallery – February 2024

We were delighted to be involved with SULA Gallery’s first exhibition of the year. The gallery was filled with artworks inspired by the work of Piet Mondrian. Marking 80 years since the Dutch artist’s death.

Athene’s love of Mondrian’s work made this a perfect match. We created a new and unique pair of our recycled guitar plectrum waterfalls inspired by the shapes of Mondrian’s paintings. The earrings were then pinned through Athene’s abstracted self portrait painting on canvas. Using bold reds combined with our favourite french greys and spring greens – our own version of Mondrian’s restrained yet all encompassing primary colour palette.

Art in the environment

This exhibition from the brillant Harbour Gallery was all about using recycled materials in art. It’s right up our alley – so we were delighted to be accepted to display our luxe plectrums earrings.

Each pair is one of a kind and made from recycled bank/store cards which would otherwise be thrown away or gathering dust in wallets, drawers and hiding places.

Turning unwanted bits of junk and found objects into beautifully modern highly wearable jewellery is one of the core values in our making practice.

60th Beatles Celebration Earrings – Guernsey Arts

Donated to Guernsey Arts for the raffle at the Beatles celebration, organised to mark 60 years since their performance in Guernsey.

Made from old vinyl records and recycled plastic cards – cut into plectrum shapes to celebrate the iconic albums, Sgt Pepper and Abbey Rd. We love how each earrings matches up with different frames from the book.

Although our collective favourite has to be Yellow Submarine – the song and animated movie. Eleanor definitely cites this as a major creative influence, and even has the books.

The whole of Guernsey has been gripped with Beatles fever, it’s like the Fab 4 are here again and everyone is screaming so loud they can’t hear them play. How has that transcended 60 years? Impressive.
