Claw Your Way Back

When my brother and I were little and my dad had his jewellery shop in Greece, he would often ask us to find peculiar shells on the beach that he would mould and turn into exquisite pieces of jewellery for us. The two I cherish most have to be this starfish necklace and shell ring, which only fits my pinky these days.



For my brother's 8th birthday he fit a lever in a crab claw that Billy found, so that he could open and close it and attached it to a badass chain. He also engraved a message on it for Billy which is in my father's inimitable handwriting.


To Billy with all my love daddy x


In light of these recent findings, I've been adoring these crustacean themed pieces dominating both the catwalks and high street:
