Tui and Tuatara

New Zealand's native Birds and animals are a Constant source of inspiration. 

These tiny Tuatara encircle a wrist with elegance and grace.

The native Tui brings joys to everyone as he/she wings around the garden singing and chortling with happiness.

Both of these items are sculptured in Sterling Silver and are available from Philip Thornton at Silverdale Village Market

SteamPunk tech

SteamPunk is not just about using old watch cogs and wheels.

 To me it's about technology, new and old. It's about the idea of technology, about where we have been and where we are going to.

With this in mind I give you......

Bold and Beautiful

These have been the most outstandingly popular design from Philip's recent "Bold and Beautiful" Range. Available in Shiny as shown, Heavily Beaten finish and Matt Beaten finish, Philip has recently added a Pendant to match any of the finishes on a Nitrol Necklace.
Nitrol is a magic modern product which is used for washers and seals in car engines. It is acid proof, heat proof and oil proof, so it stands up to all of those things the body throws at it and unlike silk or cotton cords, does not break down, nor fill up with body oils and become stiff and smelly. Philip cuts it to whatever necklace lengths you desire and fits Sterling Silver fittings. www.philipthornton.co.nz

Gothic Glory

Skull icons are making their appearance everywhere this season. They adorn handbags and shoes, scarves and shirts and costume jewellery of every kind. Philip has designed some gorgeous skull earrings and rings to compliment this theme including a range after Munch's "scream".
