The idea for Hedge came from a painting by Charlotte Verity, not a hedge, but some bare branches above a wall.

I had five handles that date from the time of Jane Austin, small and delicate dessert cutlery for cutting up fruit, I think. I did not clean them so that I presume the DNA of the people who used them is still there.

The branches are wintry but there are some coral berries left hanging.

Sterling silver, coral, bone cutlery handles.
