In the early 17th century, when botanical books were popular and frequently used as design inspirations, the sweet pea became a fashionable floral motif. It has a soft, curved silhouette, conforming well to the stylised embroidery techniques of the time.
 
The Sweet Pea jewellery collection is inspired by the extensive collection of Elizabethan and Jacobean embroidery held in the archives of the Victoria & Albert Museum in London. The collection is licensed by the Victoria and Albert Museum, London, England. ©Victoria and Albert Museum, 2010
 
A firm favourite of V&A customers, Michael Michaud is renowned for his distinctive, original botanical inspired jewellery. This unique jewellery is made by creating moulds directly from botanical elements in a process similar to lost-wax casting.

About the designer
Michael Michaud

Michael Michaud

Creating moulds directly from nature, Michael Michaud’s exquisitely detailed pieces are made using a process similar to lost-wax casting, with actual plant matter encased, then heated and burnt away to form his moulds.

Michaud’s natural forms and textures are complimented with soft patinas on bronze, accented with pearls, beads, coral and stones.
