Woven from English willow, handcrafted by Edinburgh based basketweaver Anna Liebmann. Posted in a recycled card box, with recycled tissue paper wrapping. *please note i have stopped using the green jewellery boxes in the photos as although recycled, they came a very long way which is not environmentally friendly enough for me!
The earring is made using all natural buff willow grown on the Somerset Levels, near Bridgwater, England. The willow has been boiled and stripped giving it a gorgeous golden colour. The earring is extremely lightweight and with use the willow will gain a rich patina, becoming shinier over time. Willow is a natural and renewable resource, being cut every winter once the leaves have fallen, then graded for use in basketry, fence making and.... jewellery in this case!
