Clovis Point Necklace
Designed to have a really primitive feel to it, the Clovis point was at one point believed to be the earliest man-worked stone point to be used in the Americas. Using mild steel, a Clovis point replica has been forged, texturised and burnished to create a black, almost stone-like feel to the piece.
The binding for the necklace has been made from hand woven Raffia and has been done in the style of neck adornments that have been collected from the Solomon Islands.
The strands of the necklace have been woven with jasper chips and bone beads.

Art Nouveau Orchid Hair Comb
This ornate little hair comb was inspired by the works of the Art Nouveau artist Rene Lalique. Although the bulk of his work was glass related, he also did a lot of jewellery and his hair combs are fantastic pieces of work.
This comb is made of mild steel and has been gently burnished to show the high points and accentuate the details of the piece. It has then been gently heat treated to bring a gentle straw-colour to the comb and then finished with a coating of wax.

Moon Orchid Wall Sculpture
This decorative singular piece was created for a client who required a stand alone statement piece for a blank wall. With the client having links to Indonesia, this stunning design of one of the country's three national flowers was created.
Made from mild steel, the petals and stamen have been texturised to create the delicate feel of this orchid. It has then been heated to bring out the almost rainbow-like colours of tempering steel and then finished with wax.
