Each pair comes with 6 detachable leaves, from 8-10mm long: 2 silver ivy, 2 red gold oak and 2 silver bramble.These leaves can be stacked onto the hoop in any combination to suit your mood, and the time of year. You can build your dormice their nests in autumn, lose the leaves in the winter and build them up again in Spring as the trees start to bloom, to full canopy in summer.

Just above their sleeping heads you can see the dormice dreaming of a juicy red gold blackberry. 

This is a truly special collection. Each little dormouse is cast from the original 6mm sculpture, which was hand sculpted with a sewing needle. You can see the make on Instagram. Then she is placed in her hand crocheted fine silver or fine gold nest, worked in 0.2mm wire with a 0.6mm hook.  And this is wildlife jewellery with a purpose.
