Handmade Ornament, Unique, Recycled China 'Gone Fishing' Eco gifts

Ceramic discovered Penrith Cumbria October 2021 Handcrafted into Decoration November 2025 'Gone Fishing' I visited Penrith on 13th October 2021, a lovely market town in Cumbria where I found some interesting pieces of ceramic in the local charity shops. Some were rescue plates from odds and ends boxes, cracked or badly damaged and others were stand out pieces, slightly damaged and perfect for a new project. Amongst these pieces was a large broken Churchill blue and white plate with a deep crack running across the entire plate. I like to allow things to naturally form so gently tapped the plate which then broke along the crack as expected but also broke into random shapes. This little decoration is made from the centre part of the plate, deep rich blue. Front glazed pattern in good condition, back has been sanded and sealed With Eco Friendly sealant. The idea is to create something new from old and use recycled materials to produce unique jewellery. The finished piece isn't meant to be perfect but instead retain part of the original character, including marks and scratches, all part of the history of the ceramic and materials used. Measures 55 mm x 11 mm (widest) x 3 mm Hanging on 50cm drop recycled black ribbon. Delivered in gift box made from FSC®-certified cardboard and water-based glue. Presented on Jewellery box insert made from tall oil, a by-product of paper production. Sustainable gifts, complete with short bio and gift bag.
