"Created with my wild jewellery workshop on a cold winter’s week, the Great How Pendant was shaped on the mountainside overlooking a quiet, lake valley. The calm stillness of the water below became the central inspiration for this piece — a moment of reflection captured in metal and stone.
The pendant features textured, oxidised silver, its surface imprinted with the rugged character of the surrounding rock. The deep blue lapis lazuli mirrors the lake’s depth and serenity, while a cubic zirconia adds a crystalline brilliance. Made entirely on location, this piece embodies the raw beauty of remote places and the patience required to create in the cold."
