How is it made?
The blossom flower motif is used across many pieces in my collections, I love how tiny and delicate the five petalled flowers look.
The first flowers were CAD modelled, a process I really enjoy as it allows me to create very small, delicate designs that aren't achievable by hand.
Once happy with the flowers they were attached to a sprue which feeds precious metal into the design during the lost wax casting process. The sprue with the multiple flowers attached to it is moulded so many multiples of the flowers can be cast in precious metal.
Each flower is then de-sprued, cleaned up and attached individually to a delicate (but strong!) trace chain, this isn't a job for the unsteady of hand!
The necklace is given a polish in the magnetic pin polisher to give it a high-shine finish.
Our chain is manufactured by our supplier based in Shropshire, UK and solid gold pieces are hallmarked at the Birmingham Assay office.

I make all my jewellery from my small workshop close to Birmingham’s Jewellery Quarter in the United Kingdom.
I’ve been lucky to learn so much from the incredible talent within the British jewellery trade and it’s important to me that my jewellery is made in the UK and does its own tiny bit to support the trade.
I'm surrounded by so many skilled casting companies, goldsmiths, stone setters and hand engravers in Birmingham and I think it's vital that we support them and keep their disciplines alive and available for generations of designers to come.
When you buy a piece of Rachel Whitehead Jewellery, you're helping keep the Birmingham Jewellery Quarter the vibrant and vital centre of manufacture that it has been and should remain for years to come.
