For the Autumn/Winter season 2011, we are pleased to announce the addition of Blowing in the Wind jewellery to Taylor & Vines costume jewellery collection.
Blowing in the Wind offer a fabulous range of costume jewellery which is handcrafted using real leaves. The resulting jewellery is incredibly beautiful and extremely life like. The new range compliments our other jewellery collections with a natural theme, but offers an extremely affordable price range.
Each piece oj jewellery features hand picked real leaves which are are hand coated with a copper based finish and then di
pped in precious metals such as silver gold, brass and copper.Every leaf is checked for imperfections and, if it passes inspection, is then fitted with an electrical contact point and hand painted with a copper solution.
After drying, the leaves are then placed in an electrolytic solution which has microscopic particles of 24ct gold. The electrical contact attracts the particles of gold and the metal builds up on the leaf to form a coating, which preserves even the most intricate and minute surface details. The leaf is then checked a final time to ensure the process has not magnified any previously unnoticed imperfections, before being approved
Each pendant is a unique piece of art where every detail of the leaf is preserved. They are truly beautiful and despite their delicate appearance are extremely hard wearing and durable. They are a must have addition to any girl's jewellery box and have already caputred the imagination of such celebrities as Hilary Duff, Fergie, Eva Mendes and Jessica Alba. Each pendant is accompanied by a gold or silver plated complementing chain. Prices start at £24.95 and are already available on line - click to view
