Founded in 1987, the eponymous brand draws on Monroe’s childhood in the Suffolk countryside, where a fascination with plants, animals and the changing seasons first took root. From delicately rendered wildflowers and woodland creatures to the much-loved Bumblebee necklace, his designs possess a distinctly British charm, balancing whimsy with remarkable craftsmanship. Each piece begins with Monroe’s hand at the workbench, creating jewelry that feels intimate, characterful and wonderfully alive.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"\" style=\"white-space:pre-wrap;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStyle Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e: This Dodo Necklace by Alex Monroe gives the world’s most famous flightless bird warmth, curvature and unmistakable personality. The rounded miniature recalls a species once native to Mauritius and lost soon after human discovery, balancing charm with the sobering reality of extinction. Its Natural History character invites curiosity about vanished worlds and the vulnerability of living species in the present. Wear it alone as a conversation-starting pendant, allowing the dodo’s distinctive profile to remain visible, or layer it with a simple fossil or botanical necklace. The piece offers both playful companionship and a quiet reminder that natural abundance cannot be taken for granted.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"\" style=\"white-space:pre-wrap;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePrice: \u003c\/strong\u003ePlease note price may vary due to exchange rate differences or shipping, duties and taxes.
