A gift set with a pair of neutral earrings (with sterling silver earpiece) that incorporates the locally-grown St Helena 'horsebead seed' & the highly collectable Royal Mail Ship St Helena (RMS St Helena) stationary set (she was only recently decomissioned in February of this year...once known as the lifeline of St Helena).

 

This gift set includes:

  • Horsebead seed earrings - A delicate pair of neutral beaded earrings with the locally grown 'horsebead seed' which can be found growing around St Helena - includes sterling silver earpiece
  • RMS St Helena A6 notelet
  • RMS St Helena ballpoint pen
  • RMS St Helena keyring

 

Traditionally on St Helena, hand-made seedwork was a means of providing for families, where the women would sell their seed jewellery, mats & other seedwork to passing ships.  Today, the tradition is somewhat being lost due to the time-intensive nature of working with seeds (most seeds on island have to be boiled first to soften them before you can work with them) - we're aiming to keep tradition alive, albeit with a modern twist.

 

Earrings created on St Helena by G-Unique Designs.  Stationary set also created on St Helena by GK Crafts.
