The Amulet Colllection
The new Amulet Collection is a re-interpretation of universal tokens of good fortune, protection & strength. The heart, horseshoe, & mystical all-seeing eye together with holding hands, wings & roses are all reassuringly familiar symbols of love, good will, good fortune & optimism and have traditionally been given; worn throughout humanity. Whilst drawing influence from ancient egyptian heiroglyphs, mexican votive offerings and Victorian sentimental jewellery, the amulet range gives a contemporary spin to traditional charms, with experimental use of materials & techniques. Necklaces, earrings, brooches & bolo ties are fashioned from screen-printed and foil-embossed leather to make iconic yet wearable statement pieces & perfect gifts.
