I’ve made so many fittings for the Sutton Hoo cat I can do my own hoard image. I’m getting close to finishing the project! #jeffdeboer #suttonhootreasure #catarmour #catart #catartists #jewellery #vikinghoard @richardkwakeman #1 Rachel.parikh 『S』.d.metcalf @tobiascapwell

I designed my customizable kinetic jewellery to have anodized gears in a variety of colour. With a week to go on my Armet 20% off Summer Sale take a look at armet.ca or Armet Canada on Etsy. #kineticjewelry #fidgitspinner #fidgitjewellery #jeffdeboer #steampunk

I’m exhibiting this dead albatross anti jewellery pendant that’s about microplastic in the environment this weekend in support of Future Oceans at Telus Spark science museum for the Beakerhead festival. It’s a piece I have been thinking about for years and finally made.
