Description
Ruth says:
I have hand sawn the 11mm hares from .5 mm silver sheet, then set them onto 9 mm posts with scroll backs. The silver is brushed.
Ruth Makes Jewellery is, in fact, a partnership begun by me, Ruth Sutcliffe, and subsequently joined on a part time basis by my partner Jeremy Coates. We create our unique jewellery in the hills of West Yorkshire.
Our handmade sterling silver jewellery captures moments of pleasure which tell a story, be it the rare sighting of a hare, a majestic tree spotted on our travels, birds in the garden or crazy antics of our own animals.
Using photos or drawings as templates, we carve our pieces of jewellery from sterling silver sheet, sometimes adding in copper, brass or gemstone features. Our jewellery is either polished to a rich lustre, or oxidised to create extra atmosphere. All the findings we use are sterling silver so customers can be confident our jewellery is safe to wear.
Where appropriate our jewellery is hallmarked at the Birmingham Assay Office with our sponsor marks RS and JC.
We feel passionate about our jewellery, and thank you very much for your interest.
