Silverware Jewelry: From the Table to Your Earlobe

Spoon rings, fork bracelets, knife handle pendants: silverware jewelry is alive and well.  If you're wondering what your grapefruit spoon would look like dangling from your earlobe, you're envisioning silverware jewelry a little differently than the rest of us.  Or maybe you really would like to hang grapefruit spoons from your earlobes, in which case, you should.  Who am I to say that's not the next big trend?

The silverware jewelry I'm referring to, however, is slightly different.  The silver is bent, twisted, curled, manipulated in such a way that we can barely identify the utensil, making for a great conversation starter when there's a lull at the dinner table.

Check out these beautiful fork tine earrings from the etsy shop Revisions:


Or this lovely spoon ring from Silverware Jewelry Etc.


This past weekend at the Highland Park Art Festival I bought this wonderful fork bracelet from a local artist who calls his shop Tomforkery



I absolutely LOVE it!  It reminds me of music notes.  And that's all there is to say today, about the wonderful world of silverware jewelry.
