I believe I put all my favorite things on one piece. This hair fork gets its name Horizon Line from the river. Imagine you’re on the river and you see that line that gets you all excited because you know something fun is about to happen. Now, I wouldn’t want you to wear this on the river, especially if you’re on a raft about to run a rapid, but I do want you to wear this at your best friends wedding. Or your own wedding. Or to the pub to drink a pint. Or maybe walking your dog (or cat). Who knows, it might bring you good luck. There’s a lot of love in this piece.
Note to buyer: The reclaiming process is a bit of a long one. Most of the sterling silver I buy is from well used jewelry that isn't being worn anymore or has been broken. I also buy used sterling silverware. I melt it all down and roll it into sheet and wire. This means that I don't have to buy freshly mined silver that is much easier to work with. Reclaimed pieces cost more because of this extra process. In the end, reclaiming metal for my wares is gratifying and worth it to me. I hope you feel the same. With love.
