All items by Fold and Gem

Maker of one-off pieces of craft jewellery and decorations, based upon origami and/or beading

I’m based in London, UK, with a full-time job in jewellery, but have always spent my spare-time creating with materials I don’t get to play with in my day to day work. I spent my lock-down time doodling, folding, beading, lacquering and assembling, and it’s just too many earrings for one person to wear!

I’d love for these to go to a wearer who will have fun and enjoy these - while the paper earrings are coated with a protective varnish, they are ultimately still paper, which can be squished, crushed, torn, water-damaged… they’re best to be thought of as here for a good time, not a long time. Beaded only items will be a little less temporary…

All ear hooks and posts/butterflies are made from sterling silver. Please message me for options and pricing if you would be interested in gold. The pins on beads and ‘bauble’ style origami items can be changed to a metal of your request, but the flower ones cannot (most of the hanging flower beads are attached to based metal pins, but as the earwires are so long, these shouldn’t be in regular contact with the skin)

All items are one of a kind and unlikely to be replicated. I can post weekly, so get in touch if you have a particular deadline, otherwise you could be waiting 7-10 days from placing your order. I welcome questions and requests <3
