A natural wood and silver choker designed by Wendy Pickard influenced by architecture and natural shapes and forms that surround us in day to day life. A unique approach to jewellery design is coupled with a working philosophy to design and create, original and contemporary jewellery combining wood and silver. She has discovered that by working with the grain it is possible to accentuate the shape of each piece and enables her to create movement throughout her work. Due to the individual nature of the grain within the wood each piece has it's own unique one of a kind feel, and through her designs Wendy manages to emphasise the natural essence of the wood and how beauty forms in the colours and shapes within the wood. The pieces are handcrafted from rose wood and sterling silver hallmarked in the UK. The designer uses recycled wood as possible and when not available she uses trees from a sustainable source. All the pieces are handcrafted in the workshop using traditional tools and the wood is left un treated and polished to form objects of striking natural beauty.
