Re-purposed, re-imagined
Jewellery and objects made by award winning eco-artist, jeweller - Alison Bailey Smith, based in Wellington Road Studios, unit 2, 28a Wellington Road, Birkenhead, CH43 2JE

Made in Wirral by me, Alison Bailey Smith. I trained as a jeweller in Edinburgh in the 80s and 90s and have been recycling since then, in different places all round the world. I am now back in the UK and recently acquired wires from lots of old televisions so am having great fun with new colours.My work is definitely a by-product of the 21st century & I have been described as a 'techno -cannibal' by BBC journalist Clare English. My career has spanned 3 decades and three different countries since leaving Edinburgh College of Art in 1990. The motivation behind my work comes from being the child of post war parents, Scottish thriftiness and an avid watcher of Blue Peter! I am keen to re-use, re-develop and re-create n my home and in my business.

Full description

Mesh recycled rosette brooch - from new and repurposed, recycled and adapted materials. Looks fabulous on tweed, wool, a knitted scarf or hat. I use wire reclaimed from old televisions, bought wide and repurposed silver plated wire with stainless steel mesh that I have coloured with a flame. The backing is metal repurposed from a tomato purée tube. The golden coating is a perfect “foil” to the subtle greys of the mesh.

It is a large brooch but could be worn as a pendant by threading onto a chain through the pin. 5 cm diameter .

Delivered in recycled packaging with a pink branded card & information card with free UK delivery.
