Description

Using the ends of two separate small silver plated stainless steel sugar tongs, I have upcycled a spoon and a fork and atttached them together with a jumpring to make a pendant. The fork is approximately 3.5cms long, the spoon is approximately 4.5cms long. As it is relatively lightweight, it will come with a sterling silver chain included in the price, you choose whether you'd prefer a 16 or 18 inch version. Despatched in a presentation box via the Royal Mail Tracked 48 service. A small silver polishing cloth will be included. I use silver plate cutlery for 3 reasons. Firstly it is cheaper and easier to come by than the sterling silver. Secondly, it might need to be sent to the Assay Office again. So, more expensive to buy in the first place and then more to be hallmarked. Finally, there is likely to be minor imperfections in the finish, after all, if they've been used for the purpose they were made for, then they will have! So overall, if you are buying an upcycled secondhand piece of cutlery, the cost of a sterling silver version might well feel prohibitive. Upcycled in Lancashire

All my jewellery listed here is sterling silver except for the silver plated upcycled cutlery collection. There will be elements of sterling silver in every design (except keyrings and bookmarks), some will be completely so, others may have combinations of copper, brass, bronze, glass, enamel, pewter, resin, upcycled biscuit tins, cutlery and pre-decimal coins and/or gemstones as well. Many of the designs are one-of-a-kind.
