The Elizabeth Avenue Necklace is inspired by the geometric pattern of a drain cover discovered on a London street.
Drain covers might seem an unlikely starting point for jewellery, but that's exactly what I love about them. Look closely and these functional objects are full of repeated lines, circles and carefully constructed patterns.
I've taken the Elizabeth Avenue design out of its everyday surroundings and reduced it into a small circular pendant, allowing the geometry that would normally sit unnoticed beneath our feet to become the focus.
Handmade and individually finished in the Amy Mead studio, it's an unusual piece of London-inspired jewellery with a story that's often only revealed when someone asks about it.
There are three different designs and their names are from some of the streets where these drain covers can be found.
The pendants come in 2 sizes. Small is 1.5cm diameter. Large is 1.8cm diameter.
Hanging on a 20 inch loose rope chain.
Handmade in Sterling Silver and also available in Gold Vermeil.
