My scallop shell earrings are made from 100% recycled sterling silver and are lovingly handmade in Cornwall. Each charm is an exact replica of a real Cornish Scallop shell I have found whilst beach-coming the beautiful Cornish coastline and represent our deep connection to the ocean. The method of metal casting I use captures all the beautiful details of the shell and creates a wearable piece of tranquility and natural beauty to carry with you everywhere you go.
Scallop shells are a timeless symbol of the sea and pilgrimage with their stunning fan-like shape creating a simple and elegant symmetry. The surface has rounded ridges which radiate out from the base of the shell creating depth and texture. When crafting my pieces I only use shells I have found myself empty on the tideline as it is the only way I can be sure of their origin and ensure no animal has died just for its shell. After working for many years in marine conservation I am acutely aware of the damage being done to our environment and ecosystems by the global trade in wildlife. This experience gives me a unique perspective and drives my dedication to creating environmentally friendly jewellery. Increasing my sustainability and encouraging eco-conscious consumerism is at the heart of everything I do.
I combine the style of a hoop earring with the comfort and security of a push-back setting making these earrings comfortable to wear all day. They are available in two sizes, 15mm or 20mm diameter with the shell charms measuring 15mm in length. A complimentary non-toxic chemical free polishing cloth is included, I recommend using this regularly to maintain the silvers high-polished shine.
My silver scallop shells are perfect for those who value sustainability and elegance, combining natures beauty with eco-friendly craftsmanship. Order now to add this beautiful Cornish shell to your collection.
