Wharf Inspiration


Last year we were at a boat wharf, where all the tour boats are repaired and repainted during winter time to be ready for the Summer season. We go there from time to time to collect shells. This year however I discovered that the battered boats have amazing details. Peeled paint, rusted details let the inspiration flow and I took plenty of pictures so that we could make some jewelry inspired by the colors and textures. Here is the first bunch we've made, there are more pictures and jewels to come.


Stone, coral, ceramic, copper, enamel and glass captured  the atmosphere perfectly, if I may say so :)













The jewelry pieces will be slowly listed in our shop.
