It's that Snowdrop time of year again, heralding the start of warmer weather and the lighter, brighter evenings that are now just around the corner. I've spotted a abundance of these dear little delicate white beauties, alternatively known as  "Fair Maids of February" while out walking in the Wiltshire countryside during the last couple of weeks.

 An interesting fact that I've recently discovered is that snowdrops were originally named after earrings! In the sixteenth century fashionable women often wore white drop shaped earrings, which were known as eardrops.

On the website you will also find a selection of little snowy white jewellery delights.
