Gold Vermeil Irish Shrubbery Necklace LOJ/LJIRISHGVN

Hand-crafted in Ireland by Cara Sturgess.

Native to Ireland, the Gorse (also known as the Whin) bush is rich in colour with yellow pea flowers that light up the Irish landscape. Letting the flowers wilt, Cara then created a mould to cast the whole piece. This Irish Shrubbery is often immortalised, for example in Patrick
Kavanagh's 1947 poem ‘A Christmas Childhood’. A delicate pair of earrings marking memories to be treasured.

Gold Vermeil.Hallmarked in Ireland's historic Dublin Castle.
