About heirloom silverware jewelry
Popular lore puts the origins of spoon rings in 17th century England, when servants surreptitiously "repurposed" their masters' crested silverware and fashioned it into rings for their beloved. Seeing the beautiful patterns up close, it's hard to imagine these were only enjoyed during meals or the occasional cup of coffee or tea.
I started experimenting with vintage jewelry designs after taking a jewelry metalworking class. The price of metal had me looking for alternatives and I'm a die-hard recycling fan. A friend had some vintage spoons she shared with me, and a new obsession was born.
How to care for this jewelry
I use silver-plated utensils for most of this jewelry. Some pieces may be sterling silver, others may be nickel silver. If you have a nickel sensitivity, check with me before buying a piece and I'll try to verify its composition. (All earrings have surgical steel posts.) However, it's always best to err on the side of caution if you have a serious nickel sensitivity and avoid flatwear jewelry. I work with vintage pieces and their history and compositions may not always be 100% accurate.
Also, please remember that these pieces have been used, and though I try to remove most signs of wear, they may still show a bit here and there. Plus, heating and soldering the plated pieces can be tricky, and once in a while, there may be some slight bubbling. I carefully remove that wherever possible.
To clean these pieces, I recommend a tarnish-removing cloth on the silver-plated portions. For the stones and non-silk chains, just lightly rub them clean with soft cloth dipped in warm water. Earring wires are hypoallergenic steel.
Most of all, just enjoy it.
Please note that my jewelry contains small pieces and cords, which could pose a choking hazard for children under 5.
