A circular disc of oxidised sterling silver, pierced with an open coral-like lattice and finished with an intentionally irregular edge, on a fine sterling silver chain.

Made in Louise Douglas's Nelson studio using the lost wax casting technique, the disc is hand-carved in wax before being cast in sterling silver, hand-finished, and oxidised to a dark antique tone. The open lattice catches the light across its full surface as it moves — substantial in presence but not in weight. The chain threads directly through the disc rather than hanging from a fixed bail, allowing it to sit flat and shift naturally against the body. Finished with a handmade clasp.

Oxidised sterling silver

Sterling silver chain and handmade clasp

Chain length 47cm, disc diameter 32mm

ABOUT the MAKER

Louise Douglas

Louise Douglas works from her studio in Nelson, New Zealand, casting jewellery directly from the natural world — seashells, twigs, leaves, found objects — and from a deep affection for the particular and the remembered. Her pieces are small-batch, made by hand using the lost wax casting technique, and finished in oxidised sterling silver, solid gold, and freshwater pearl. The collection spans botanical drop earrings and delicate necklaces through to bangles and rings — each piece rooted in the same making process, the same sensibility. There is nothing generic in Louise's work. Every form has a source: something picked up on a walk, something held onto. The jewellery carries that quality with it.
