h a r l e q u i n collection photoshoot...and it's LAUNCH at Finders Keepers!

Oooh, we couldn't be more excited - here at Ginny & Jude HQ we can barely contain our bouyant delight at being able to finally share with you the Harlequin Collection!
The thwarted circular romances of Harlequin and Columbine, Pierrot and Pierrette provided us with a frivolous and theatrical backdrop for a stunning new range of knits, jewellery and headwear.
We stuck to a colour palette of stark contrasts and monochrome in hand-knitted mohair, semi-precious stones, pearls, dyed straw and quills together with some lovingly restored vintage pieces.

Shot on location at the Old Rectory in Ashfield, we enlisted the talents of local photographer Lyndal Irons to ensure everything looked amazing.

With her talents behind the lens and the natural beauty of our model, I really struggled with the selection process, but below are what I consider to be the real gems of the shoot.

Everything is now available to order - just send me a email if you see something you like!
And for those who prefer the tactile approach, these pieces will be made available to the public at the Autumn/Winter Finders Keepers markets!

Enjoy!
