1970s Floral Tin Earrings: Upcycled Vintage Biscuit Tin, Sterling Silver Hooks

Boho 1970s recycled tin earrings hand-cut from a Daher of Long Island "flower power"style storage tin. An absolute riot of tiny flowers!

Design will vary depending on which bit of the tin I used, and the earrings will not match each other (although they will be from the same tin)

Each piece is carefully hand-cut and the edges sanded smooth before being gently tapped into an elegant curve.

Did you know that the traditional 10th wedding anniversary gift is tin? It's probably meant to be the kind of tin that used to be mined here in Cornwall, but I think these are much nicer!

READY TO GIFT

Every pair of these earrings arrives gift-wrapped at no extra cost, saving you time and effort. I make little paper gift envelopes from pretty wrapping paper for each order, and decorate each little parcel with co-ordinating ribbons and a tiny bunny charm. The pretty packages are even small and light enough to hang on the Christmas tree!

Whether treating yourself or sending a gift directly to a loved one, it's a pretty treat from the moment you open the envelope! (design will vary depending on which nice wrapping paper caught my eye!)

Please bear in mind that my jewellery is made from preloved tins. This means that they've seen a bit of life, they may have scratches and dents, bumps and scrapes, some may have faded or discoloured a little, but they're all beautiful in their own way. I try to avoid damaged parts as far as possible, but I believe it's our experiences and our imperfections that shape our character, and I think that goes for beautiful recycled treasures too. I hope you agree x
