Silver Crow Feather Bracelet
“FREE YOUR MIND AND THE REST WILL FOLLOW”
Sterling silver crow feather bracelet, created from a genuine crow feather.
This sterling silver feather is imprinted with the incredible natural pattern from a real crow feather. The silver crow feather is then hand-sawn, shaped, oxidised and brushed to highlight all the details, before being lightly polished for a subtle shine. It has a wonderfully tactile feel, and curves gently around the wrist. My signature hammered charm hangs from the end of the chunky oval chain. It is fully adjustable up to 8.25″. Simply fasten the clasp at the point that suits, and let the rest dangle. All loops are soldered closed for strength and durability.
This feather is created by carefully imprinting the pattern from a genuine crow feather deep into the silver, using traditional processes. As each one is created from a different crow feather, or different part of the feather, no two will be exactly the same. No crows are harmed in obtaining these feathers! I am fortunate to have several friendly crows living nearby, who are always happy to see me and accept the occasional peanut. During their summer moult they leave many feathers behind and I carefully find, collect and store each one. As these pieces are created from only these gathered feathers, they are strictly limited in supply, depending upon how many feathers I am gifted each year.
There is a wealth of mythology surrounding crows in numerous cultures. For the ancient Greeks, the crow was a symbol of Apollo, god of prophecy; a powerful symbol of good fortune and strength. In some cultures, seeing a crow means hope for the future and that the heart’s true wishes will be fulfilled, while many Native American cultures see the crow as a wise adviser and protector. No matter your beliefs, these are beautiful, intelligent birds, and they inspire many of my designs.
Let this totem crow feather bracelet be your own personal guardian. May it act as a talisman for light, hope and good fortune, and give you the confidence to fly free and follow your dreams.
Please note, each piece is individually hand-forged by me from sterling silver sheet, using genuine cruelty-free ‘moult-drop’ crow feathers, traditional tools and a whole lot of love. These pieces are therefore only available in limited quantities each year, and there will be very slight differences in each piece. Your own feather will be entirely unique to you. May it allow you to soar.
Matching necklaces and earrings available.
Part of my “Wild Earth” collection, a celebration of the natural world, its landscapes and wild inhabitants. These pieces are created as a reminder that there is no better designer than Nature, and to find enough beauty to fill the soul, we need only look around us.
Designed and lovingly created in my studio in Moray, Scotland.
I work in sterling silver, ancient bronze, copper and brass, with natural semi-precious gemstones. I make pieces which are perfect for layering together, mixing and matching, so you can grow your collection and choose your pieces according to your mood, or the inspiration you want to gain that day.
Each piece is unique. Whilst I may create similar pieces, as every piece is made individually by hand, no two will ever be the same. I am registered with Edinburgh Assay Office for precious metal work.
