This mis-matched set of three studs are cast from seeds collected by Wild Seed Project, a Maine-based nonprofit dedicated to native plant advocacy alongside one common milkweed seed stud collected by Thicket.

10% of sales from this piece go directly to Wild Seed Project.

The seeds are from meadow species native to New England: partridge pea, golden alexander, and common milkweed.

NATURAL HISTORY

Meadows in the northeast are typically areas that have been previously disturbed such as former farm land and pastures. Native wildflowers growing in meadows provide important food for caterpillars and nectar forage for pollinators.

METAPHOR

Exuberance. Finding a new path. The persistence of songbirds seeking seeds.
  • the three seeds vary in dimensions
  • comes with sterling silver / 14k gold backings

About the process

Each piece of Thicket jewelry begins with taking a mold of a found or
foraged natural object. This mold is used in the process of lost wax
casting to create a perfect replica, in solid fine metal, of the
original natural object.

Why metaphor?

Jewelry is not only adornment - it is symbolism. Jewelry can be a talisman, a reminder, a covenant, a spell.

Humans have been ascribing meaning to the natural world for a very long time. In selecting natural objects to cast I think not only about the form and aesthetics but also the valences of meaning the object holds and I include these in the description of each Thicket piece. Each of these metaphors is a beginning, waiting for you to layer your own meanings and stories onto.
