The ways we make ourselves smaller to ensure others are comfortable... we may diminish our perspective, choose silence when words are bursting at the seams, cede our knowledge to others who are nowhere near as qualified. How about we stop doing that, step fully into our power, and let the world adapt to that? This piece is talisman for owning the fullness of your wisdom, creativity, and intelligence. May you not ever again be dimished, but instead shine into your fullness. 
 
Ethically sourced Crystal Pipe Opal and Turquoise set in sterling silver with fine silver bezel. Hung from an 18" sterling chain. 
 
All my pieces are individually handmade from natural stones and recycled metals. No two items are alike, and they will all have natural imperfections. These imperfections imbue the work with unique personality, grit, and story – the stuff of character. 
 
Stone jewelry shouldn’t be worn in water or exposed to chemicals (soaps, lotions, detergents). I like to think of stones as living things (on much different time scales than the ones we are accustomed to). To extend their lives, we need to limit their exposure water and other chemicals/liquids.
