Description

Often times our most wonderful discoveries are merely the recognition of what is before us – and in this case under foot! Our botanical jewelry collection was inspired by our unearthing of the usefulness of invasive weeds and pays homage to its winged cultivator.

medicinal use: Health tonic for liver and digestion, diuretic


“Mama, Mama! Make a wish!”

And I do. I am never bored by this enchanting act, and in its simplicity, I have faith in the fruition of each wish…

The golden dandelion has endured for centuries. It was originally brought to the American colonies by the English – intentionally – for its medicinal and culinary use. There was a time when grass was cleared for this honoured migrant, but now the opposite is true. Dandelions have been used all over the world in a plethora of remedies and recipes, and have only recently been dismissed as a weed.

We love sautéing the bitter greens with olive oil, garlic, salt and pepper – it makes a lovely and healthy snack. Tossing the petals of the dandelion into a salad always renders a treasure hunt. Dandelion recipes and uses are as numerous as the rolly-polly bugs in our garden. The more I research, and the more I eat, the more I become suspicious of this word ‘weed.’

    Wear every day

    This necklace is so sweet. The only reason I gave it four stars is that it isn’t as clean as the website pics and there is a bend in the chain which makes it difficult to put on. I wish it were more detailed but it lends to the homemade feel. I do love it.
