New for spring...

A new addition to my work are these juniper studs in 9ct yellow gold. A classic Joanne Haywood design from around 2003, with an oxidiesed silver surface, you can now get them in plain stirling silver or gold.

I have a few more new pieces to share with you next week...in the run up to my exhibition at Craft in The Bay, "Intrinsic".

Wild garlic forage...

Just for fun I am sharing some photos I took at the weekend from the local woodland. Last year, by chance I found an amazing carpet of wild garlic, so I returned this year again to forage for some more. The first few photos show the journey over to the secret stash.

And then here is a detail of the woodland floor covered in the wild garlic, the treasure being washed, a bowl of emerald green pesto and the final Tagliatelle dish.

Wild garlic is also known as 'bear's garlic', 'devil's garlic', 'gypsy's onions' and 'stinking Jenny'
