Here’s a question for the creative jewelry artists in the crowd: have you ever used model railroad supplies to make a $1400 necklace?
Some of the most astonishingly original pieces I’ve seen in ages (thanks to Di Overton for spotting the dangerously pretty rings) have turned up in Sarah Hood’s landscape jewellery collection — inspired and inspiring!
My personal favourite in Hood’s new line is the aforementioned one-of-a-kind Bush/ Branch Necklace, made of tiny sterling silver branches interpersed with those little fake “bushes” and “underbrush” you’d get to make a model railroad landscape.
It comes with a cherry wood and glass shadow box, so you can show it off on the sideboard or wall when it’s not sparking up your little black dress.

Bonsai jewelry? Do they come with mini-gardening tools?

No garden tools, Pinhole, but now you mention it, the living rings look like something for which you’d want a tiny tiny pair of secaturs!
