Heather Stowell's button jewellery

I spotted Heather Stowell's jewellery at the Christmas Primrose Hill Designer Fair, and I was much tempted by her vintage button earrings - this is recycling at its finest.

I particularly love this pair of earrings which are made with Victorian glass and metal drops - 'in line' earrings start at £92, although ones with a a thick bezel setting like these cost more. And earrings with just one button start at £48.

Necklaces such as this one with five buttons start at £147.

Each piece of jewellery that Heather makes is a one-off, and she also takes commissions to set your favourite buttons in silver. If you haven't got any vintage buttons of your own, you could stop by The Button Queen in London - located at 76 Marylebone Lane - and pick out your own.

Heather will be at RHS Wisley over the Royal Wedding weekend (29th April to 2nd May) for the Craft and Design Fair.
