These gathering of posts will include the close to 30 items of adornment that I created this summer from the stones that I’ve drilled, many of which I’ve found, and beads that have been collected over the years. they will appear here in the order in which they were created.
Each piece tells the story and carries its own magic. Eons of history, bound into delicate forms to carry and help us remember.
This first piece is a knot-work vessel constructed of pink tourmaline and a raw crystal of Amazonite. The beads joining this piece are gradations of Amazon night and its matrix stones. At the back is a pull-tie closure.

At the heart of this piece is a beautiful point of resonant Lemurian quartz. From it grow beads of rutile quartz, Madagascar agate and strawberry agate. At the back is extensive knotwork and a pull-tie closure so that it is adjustable in length.
