Multi functional pieces

These solid silver pieces are made by Katrina Alexander using the art of lost wax carving and many of them can be worn in different ways, thereby creating different pieces of sterling silver jewellery. For example the pendants can be hung in different ways to create different looks and can also be worn as rings. The rings can also be worn in different ways, again creating different looks, and two rings can be worn together, fitting together in different ways too.

All pieces are hallmarked by the Assay Office with the maker’s mark and are limited edition rather than mass produced.
