“Make a beginning. The oak is in the acorn.”

Drawing on the acorn’s connotation of something small but mighty, this memorial necklace is cast from two halves of a fallen acorn collected on a foraging walk. The perfectly imperfect texture captures a snippet of nature, and is often used to turn pet ashes into jewellery due to its association with precious woodland walks with our four-legged friends. 

Each piece is:

• thoughtfully made by hand in my Nottinghamshire studio.
• cast using sustainably ethically sourced 9ct gold.
• sealed using a heatless laser for permanence, its precious content kept safe forever.
• will require you to send Jessica a small amount of ashes to seal inside the acorn, we will send you a pack through the post once an order is placed to help you do this.

Dimensions - acorn approx 13mm in length 

Once you’ve purchased your chosen handmade design, Jessica will be in touch by email to get started on your bespoke heirloom and guide you through the next steps of treasuring your story, which will involve sending in the ashes or other precious material to be sealed inside. Please note the bespoke process can take up to six weeks. We ask that you please make sure your contact details are correct at the checkout to allow Jessica to make contact.
