These Sea Moss petite stud earrings feature a small seaweed design, hand-enamelled in Sea Blue enamel in our Orkney workshop. Each earring measures approximately 8mm by 10mm.
About the collection
For many years, Sheila had been keen to develop jewellery inspired by the shape and form of seaweed, so when Janette Park, curator of Stromness Museum, asked about a collaboration to help raise funds for the museum, an idea took hold.
During a memorable visit to the museum, Sheila was shown fascinating and delicate seaweed samples, many collected from coastline at Hoxa Head during WWI. Inspired by the heart-shaped tips on some of the sea moss forms, Sheila worked with her in-house designer, Olivia Yorston, and together developed a beautifully organic collection of jewellery in both silver and gold.
