The intensity of weather that winter brings is phenomenal and when you look closely you notice just how beautiful stormy weather can be. Pausing in awe, mesmerised and inspired, I love to watch the stormy seas... Spellbound by the ferocious waves that crash with unbelievable force against the shoreline and cliffs, or the white tips of swell in the distance breaking up the expanse of sea. Noticing the colour of the sea that varies from grey to almost navy blue and all the shades in between. Standing beneath a mean, moody sky and watching the changes in depth of colour and intensity. Noticing how the clouds roll though the sky, their speed commanded by the wind and playing that game of chance, wondering if each one will release it's contents on you! Beauty found in the dark and intense, beauty found on a grey day, beauty found in moments often missed...

Full description
This Sterling Silver tie clip is inspired by stormy days on the Cornish coast and finding beauty in amongst the 'grey.'
Each tie clip features disc of Silver that has been shaped in to a dome, measuring aprox 1.2cm (12 mm) wide. The Dome is positioned to the end of the clip and soldered in place so that it stands prod of the actual clip. The inside of the dome have been treated with an oxidising treatment to blacken it, which has been lightly polished. The polishing process removes some of the colour and also gives it a sheen that changes the intensity of colour - depending on which direction you look at it, it looks various shades of grey and black, just like a stormy sky! Half of each concave dome is then textured again and small sections of the blackened, polished surface are hand engraved to reveal the silver - it's this that is representative of the ferocious sea. The edge of the domes are flat, front facing and have been polished for contrast against the blackened insides.
This unique, contemporary design would make a great gift for anyone drawn to the coast and the sea, or who perhaps needs a little reminder that beauty can be found on the greyest of days...
Designed by Lucy Symons in Cornwall
