Cast into sterling silver from some collected mini poppy seed-pod heads. The delicate details of this much-loved wildflower's seed-pod are captured perfectly. A perfect gift for someone who loves a wildflower meadow, or maybe an August birthday, with Poppies being the birthflower of this month. 
 
Materials:
Sterling Silver Pin & silver plated stopper - Given a soft polished finish to highlight the textures.
 
Dimensions:
Total length is 5cm - pin & pod.
 
How it's made:
A perfect seed pod was gathered in a field in Kent & a rubber mold was made so that repeats of this beautiful pod could be transformed into metal using the ancient art of lost-wax casting (this is done in London by a casting company). Back with Rock Rose in Pembrokeshire they are tidied up & stem is hand-carved to a point
 
How to wear it:
This pin can be attached as a decorative accessory to clothing such as a lapel, a scarf or a structured hat. It's fastened with a simple stopper that pushes on.
 
Gift-boxed & with a tiny silver polishing cloth enclosed.
 
I have a collection of gathered seed pod jewellery available here...
