Recycled Jewellery

May 7, 2020 By Carol

from Tierry Tomczak

Up cycled Pearl and Amethyst Pendant – A prime example of recycled jewellery. It is always a pleasure to go through someone’s unloved or broken jewellery and discuss their style and taste in jewellery. Found this beautiful battered pair of gold amethyst earrings and several pearls on studs.

The owner wanted a simple yet classy pendant out of them so I decided to reuse the whole earrings upside down, straightening the hook to attach the pearls and adding a bail. A rather simple concept, and she absolutely loved her new stunning pendant. The end of the wire is usually cut flush, but I left it as is. My first piece of jewellery in over a month and the joy of recreating love… Plenty of ideas in my head but too busy with everything else at the moment.
