Sterling Silver Wren Cufflinks

These polished silver wren cufflinks are available in 4 different poses, so you can either get a matching pair or mismatched set. Each bird is handsawn from eco-silver, which is made from more environmentally friendly recycled stock. If you select a matching pair I will make them to face each other, but you can request otherwise if you prefer. All my jewellery is handmade in my workshop in Caerphilly, Wales.

Matching earrings are also available.

There are 83 species of Wren in the Americas, and then one Eurasian Wren this side of the pond, which lives all across Europe. In Britain alone there are an estimated 7 million wren territories and it is the most widespread bird, but sadly a cold winter often kills up to 25% of the population. Weighing a tiny 7-12g, the wren is often thought of as the smallest British bird but actually the goldcrest is smaller, it is the shortest though! Back in Ireland I grew up with the story of the Wren becoming king of the birds by outwitting the others. After it was decided that the bird that flew highest would be king, the eagle soared off into the sky not noticing the tiny little wren on its back, once the eagle was tired and could go no higher the wren flew off its back and up just a little bit, becoming the king, using its small size to its advantage!
