We’re pleased to announce the arrival of Alex Monroe’s eagerly anticipated ‘The Gardener” collection.

The collection is based on Alex’s new children’s story, The Gardener, which was inspired by his passion for gardening. Alex has long been a keen gardener, and keeps an allotment in Dulwich, to where he retreats with his daughters to potter away, sit and eat strawberries and escape the chaos of everyday life.

The book imagines a solitary, thoughtful little girl who discovers the delights and secrets of city gardening. Ants scurry about their business. Bees buzz and the breeze gently sways the apple branches. But the high garden fences cannot keep tragedy away and she soon discovers a sadness coupled with the new future opening before her.

Alex has created a delightful and surprising collection of jewellery, displayed in it’s own secret garden. In a reflection of the dreaminess of the story, ants and bees and dragonflies nestle amongst the plants and flowers. A large, smooth apple locket opens to reveal it own special secret……
