Horse Hair Jewellery

Tuesday November 14, 2006
When my horse Freya died I kept a large tuft of her tail. I planned to make something out of it, but have been stumped for an idea. Thanks to a forum post, I've been introduced to the idea of horse hair jewlery by nannasalmi. The nannasalmi collection offers many different designs of horse hair jewellry made from hair you supply or supplied by them. The weaves are intricate and beautiful and can be combined with attractive gems and findings.

Thanks for the article on horse hair jewelry. I’ve been doing some web shopping to find a jeweler to create a necklace from my horse’s hair. There is a site, Solenaro Designs Horsehair Jewelry, that seems to have jewelry designs that exceed in originality and form the others that are available on the web. The address is http://solenarodesigns.com . The hair patterns are interesting and the settings appear to be varied in function, design, and composition. I’ve e asked around my local horse community and indeed heard nothing but rave reviews about their jewelry.
Thought your readers would like the name of a site in addition to the only one you mention in your article.

Thanks for your attention
