Long Tailed Tit and Branch Necklace

Long Tailed Tit and Branch Necklace

Regular price £175.00 Sale

 This stunning necklace features a tiny bird perched on a silver wintery branch. Handmade in sterling silver with intricate attention to detail in our Northamptonshire workshop each Long Tailed Tit is naturally imperfect, gently polished to catch the light and plated with ruthenium black and rose gold. This tiny bird looks ready to fly away at any moment. Each pendant measures 1cm x 2.5cm in length and is suspended from an 18" diamond cut curb chain. Made from 100% recycled silver this special necklace would make the perfect choice for anyone who not only loves nature and the English countryside but who is also looking to make more sustainable choices.

It is part of a collection of jewellery inspired by a beautiful poetry book with daisies embossed on the front cover and handcut pages found on my Grandma's book shelf- A Bird Lovers Anthology. This tiny ball of fluff, the Long Tailed Tit is easily recognisable with its distinctive colouring, an impossibly long tail which is bigger than its body, and undulating flight. They are sociable and noisy birds that rove the woods and hedgerows.

"The coy bumbarrels twenty in a drove, Flit down the hedgerow in the frozen plain, And hang on the little twigs and start again.
