ThI have always had a fascination with Victorian-era fashion, especially the details and symbolism found in its jewellery. While researching the period, I became drawn to the Victorian interest in natural history and entomology, when beetles and butterflies were carefully studied, flowers were pressed into journals, and the natural world became a source of inspiration for artists and jewellers alike. I wanted to bring a little piece of that world to life through The Naturalist Necklace.
