This Sea Moss pendant features a small heart-shaped seaweed design, beautifully highlighted in Sheila’s Mill Sands enamel, and enhanced with a long freshwater rice pearl. The pendant design measures approximately 18mm by 18mm with a 30mm drop, and hangs elegantly from a silver curb chain.

About the collection

For many years, Sheila had been keen to develop jewellery inspired by the shape and form of seaweed, so when Janette Park, curator of Stromness Museum, asked about a collaboration to help raise funds for the museum, an idea took hold.

During a memorable visit to the museum, Sheila was shown fascinating and delicate seaweed samples, many collected from coastline at Hoxa Head during WWI. Inspired by the heart-shaped tips on some of the sea moss forms, Sheila worked with her in-house designer, Olivia Yorston, and together developed a beautifully organic collection of jewellery in both silver and gold.
