Here at NI Silver we are always looking for new pieces of jewellery to create and our ‘Dark Hedges Etched Necklace – Jewellery inspired by nature’ is part of a collection which started with a commission by the Dark Hedges Preservation Trust.

This necklace is approx 1.8cm in diameter, without the hoop, and is 0.4cm width.

We have made a few different versions of the design and this necklace has the etched back, which adds a 3-D feel and also allows the ‘trees’ on the front to cast their own shadows.

Our jewellery maker Ruth McEwan-Lyon loves these pieces and says ‘the etching process always creates a different affect, so no two pieces are actually the same’.

The words ‘The Dark Hedges’ are engraved across the top but should you want these to be personalised please contact us to discuss your requirements and we can discuss the commission process and estimated costs involved.

These pieces are made out of solid 925 sterling silver and are hallmarked with Ruth’s silversmith mark.  The hallmarking process entails us sending our jewellery to the Assay where they confirm the grade of silver used and then either stamp or laser engrave the hallmark onto each piece.  This all takes time and so please advice us if you need your pieces in a hurry.

  • The whole experience was amazing from start to finish. Ruth was so friendly and accommodating making us feel as if we were her lifelong friends. We loved making our rings (with lots of Ruth’s help of course) and we felt so proud of ourselves. Ruth and Steve welcomed us into their beautiful home and garden and provided us with a delicious array of food and drinks in their outdoor igloo. Overall it was a relaxing, creative and bonding experience which we would highly recommend.

  • If you're looking for that unique treat or experience,then a jewellery making workshop with Ruth at NI Silver is a must! I had such a fun time not only watching Ruth demonstrate her skill, but then making my own bespoke silver ring and of course enjoying Steve's great hospitality. What a perfect day!  Thank you.

  • My husband and I were gifted a workshop experience and we weren't too sure what to expect, but Ruth at NI Silver made the morning an absolute pleasure. She was knowledgeable and funny, chatting away whilst showing us the steps we needed to do, and then stepping back to let us have a good go! We all had a great time and I would 100% recommend the workshop experience to anyone - I'll definitely be back some time for another go!
