We Turn Used Antique Pocketwatch Parts Into One-Of-A-Kind Jewelry

ADVERTISEMENT

My mother Elaine and I, Alice, from Hampshire, UK teamed up in 2011 to take watch parts to the next level with our imaginative creations and painstaking attention to details.

Back in 2011 we found a bag of old 1930’s-1960’s watch parts in our garage, that was given to my mother back in the 1980’s when she used to run a craft shop. We thought the parts were too unusual and beautiful to be hidden in the garage and started creating jewelry from them.

We now use the dials and mechanisms to create wearable works of art so everyone can own a unique piece of history made from something that otherwise would have been thrown away or hidden inside a drawer. You can also see our previous work here.
