HANDWOVEN PATRIOTIC DORSET BUTTON AND KUMIHIMO BRAIDED NECKLACE

I made a Dorset button by weaving crochet cotton around a brass ring. The colours are red, white and blue. I also made two 'linking' rings in red cotton thread worked over smaller brass rings.

The creation of Dorset buttons was originally a large cottage industry in Dorset, England between 1622 and 1850, after which they were overtaken by machine-made buttons.

Patriotic Colours for Great Britain, France, Australia, New Zealand and USA.

I also made a braid using the same colours and the Japanese Kumihimo technique. I have used nickel-free silver plated jewellery findings to attach the Dorset buttons to the braid and for the adjustable fixture at the back of the necklace.

SIZE - The inner circumference can be adjusted from 18.5" (47cm ) to 19.75" (50cm)

This stylish necklace is my own design so it is truly unique.

If you would like me to make matching earrings, please feel free to contact me. See my other listings for the style of earrings which I can make.

Please be aware that screens can show colours differently.

I will pack the necklace in tissue paper and an organza drawstring gift bag.

Designed by KAREN MALLEDENT in Guernsey
