Peppermint Crow - unique fine silver pendants handcrafted from real botanical treasures, capturing and preserving nature

Hi, my name’s Liz. I make unique fine silver pendants crafted from real botanical treasures (leaves, seeds, lichen, berries, etc) foraged from the fields and woodland close to my home on the edge of a village in Berkshire.

My pendants are not so much inspired by nature as crafted directly from it. I use silver clay to carefully form a cast which captures every intricate detail. When fired, the organic matter burns away, transforming the leaf into pure silver (999) and preserving it for eternity. Every minute detail and texture is imprinted by the clay, rendering every pendant individually unique.

I make a wide variety of pendants which I finish in a variety of ways: some highly polished, some with a satin finish and others are oxidised to create an antique patina and enhance detail.

Creating each pendant is, for me, both a labour of love and an obsession! I stumbled upon this craft several years ago and my curiosity led me to experiment at home: I was immediately hooked. I had found something which combined both my thirst for creativity and love of the outdoors. Daily time in nature is a necessity for me: organising my thoughts, peace, daydreaming, fresh air - bliss! I gain a huge amount of joy and satisfaction from every stage of the pendant-making process. Transforming a fleeting creation of nature into fine silver is alchemy!

Peppermint Crow is born from this passion. I really hope that you’ll find something here that you’ll love to wear just as much as I’ve loved to make. Thank you for taking the time to visit my shop.
