Electronic Sheep






















New to the Swan's nest is fabulous knitwear by designer knitwear label Electronic Sheep. We present for you their AW collection Pipes and Pyramids. A self described voyage of ancient discovery the collection creates imagery inspired from the travels of ancient explorers set out to unearth new and exotic lands.

The wanderlust to the New World by pioneer Sir Frances Drake provides images of exotic fruits, herbs, sea life, native america and of course tobacco pipes. Also inspiration is taken from the iconography of a more modern USA, all of these knitted together, with spots, stripes and tassels.

The tasty treats at Swanfield include knitted triangle scarfs and oversized pieces, beanies berets and bobble hats. These pieces are so wearable with other collections in the Swan's nest. Mix and match with the tassels of Jenny Jenny jewellery or the heritage fabrics from Cecilia Hammarborg's winter coats.

Jenny Jenny






















Inspired by a box of vintage silks, belonging to her Grandmother, Jenny Collier has reinterpreted the shapes and materials discovered within to create her second range of handcrafted designs, combining fine fabrics and threads with Stirling Silver.

Using her signature handmade tassels, now ranging from miniature and multi-layered to classically long and elegant, these updated favourites and new styles are a vibrant progression. Solid Stirling Silver is used throughout and complemented by oversized metallic painted wooden beads.

The production of these designs will only ever be in extremely limited numbers. Using finite vintage materials and making each piece meticulously by hand ensures each one remains precious.















Above... The tassel charm bracelet transforms with the addition of a matching stirling silver extender chain, to become a necklace. Simple versatility at it's most stylish.
