Description Inspiration for my Orb Weaver Spider Ornament Spiders were always going to have a place in my collection. They finally made the grade when an Orb Weaver Spider very usefully posed for me in my house in an earring-safe position! The spider jewellery has since attracted a lot of attention – but sometimes you just need a spider for it’s own sake. So here is the Orb Weaver Spider Ornament. I’m pretty good with most animals but spiders have always scared me. This is despite being brought up in a house with VERY BIG spiders. However, I remember a nature programme where an international spider expert was asked how he had become interested in spiders. He admitted that, in his desire to quell his own arachaphobia, he learnt as much as possible about these amazing creatures – and became completely hooked. Maybe there is hope for me yet (- though I should add that my spider and fly earrings are, in fact, my favourite earrings). He is fully modelled on both sides and has as delicate legs as I thought I might be able to get away with in silver. Doesn’t move by himself – so safe for arachnophobes! Material: Sterling Silver Hallmarked or Makers Mark: Hallmarked Dimensions: The spider is 38mm x 13 mm
