We aim to ship all orders as soon as possible, but the handmade nature of our jewellery means that most products take up to 5 working days, some larger or unusual pieces can take longer. However, we know life can be hectic, so if you need your order sooner, please checkout with express shipping, and contact us with details of your deadline. We will always do our best to help!
The fern has always had a place in European folklore as a mysterious plant with special powers. Fern-fever (pteridomania) is a term for the Victorian craze of fern collecting. Considered a British eccentricity, it was a fashionable hobby where enthusiasts hosted overnight expeditions to collect rare species in the belief they boosted their love life. Confusion over how ferns reproduced led to the belief throughout Europe that possession of a fern seed would grant invisibility, and that the magical plants only produced a single, spectacular flower holding the seed, once a year, at midnight on Mid Summer’s eve. Legend has it that should you find yourself surrounded by ferns at midnight and no sound can be heard, the fairy Puck will appear and give you a purse of gold. Tread carefully though, for should you step on a fern, you will become lost and confused, possibly wandering into Fairyland, never to be seen again.
Our medal charms are made with real flowers in sterling silver, using the traditional technique of lost wax casting. They are beautifully packaged with our signature box posy which changes with the seasons, a card detailing our favourite facts and folklore, and a gift card for a personal message.
If you feel that not all the sentiments are appropriate, simply add a note in 'Special Instructions' at checkout and we will remove it from the card insert.

By choosing an Albert swivel clasp (first used on Victorian watch chains), your charm needn’t stay in one place. It can move with ease between chain and bracelet, a small detail that makes a big difference.
Charms will be attached to your chosen accessory as standard. If none is selected, we'll include a seasonal ribbon choker ~ to carry your charm until you place it elsewhere.
Floriography, also known as the language of flowers, is the practice of attributing meanings and symbolism to flowers and has been recorded in traditional cultures around the world for thousands of years.
